In case you missed it...

Sunday's sermon started with the story of the death of John the Baptist, a horrific event which Pastor Craig brought to life with his lively description of Herod and his posse. The image of Salome carrying the prophet's severed head to show to her mama gives us a picture of Herod's family life which is as disturbing as the crime itself.

It's tempting to look at this kind of wickedness and think that evil has triumphed.

Instead, the story can show us that evil doesn't triumph, that even in a case like this one, where people have so much worldly power that they can appear to get away with any level of depravity, God is still present.

The children's message reminded us of the interconnectedness of all living things and our responsibility to care for our environment.

The choir brought the spiritual "Hush!" for the second service,and Sweet Harmony sang for the early service.

Next week's sermon is "Where have all the shepherds gone?" and the choir will sing a piece by John Rutter.

God's Green Thumb is Alive & Well!

This morning a group of youth and adults gathered to help make our church grounds beautiful. They were spotted mowing the prayer garden, trimming bushes and mulching. Anyone and Everyone is welcome to join this group. They meet every Tuesday morning from 9-11am here at the church. Over the past few weeks this group has accomplished alot! Check out the new indoor and outdoor Four Square Courts, trimmed bushes, and weeded Prayer Garden. Chip, Dale & Family (our resident Prayer Garden turtles) were even spotted coming out to express their appreciation a couple weeks ago!
