Musings Along Lifes Way

Dear Friends,

Holy, Holy, Holy, God of Love and Majesty, the whole universe speaks of your glory. -UCC Book of Worship – echoing Isaiah, Chapter 6

This Sunday will tell the glory of God in our fellowship. So much is happening…so much not to be missed. Here’s is a list with some of my comments:

· It is Mother’s Day – a day to celebrate women, to celebrate the gift of life, to celebrate the woman who brought us into the world – whether she is living or she has passed. It is a Sunday to celebrate our God, who like a good mothers nurtures us with her strength and compassion.

· It is Pentecost – a day to celebrate the church’s founding by the power of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit is like a mother to the church bringing forth life and community. She is like a flame lighting the fires of compassion and love in us all.

· We are baptizing Collin Brown. Collin is the son of Graham and Linda Brown. It is in the Holy Spirit that we baptize realizing the power of new life.

· And finally, our children, the one’s baptized grow up. It is Youth Sunday. The Youth of our church reflecting their love for God and community will be helping me with Sunday’s service.

I look forward to seeing you all in church this Sunday.

Blessings and Peace,
David
