A Word from the Pastor

BREAKFAST AND WORSHIP ON
THEOLOGICAL EDUCATION SUNDAY
SEPTEMBER 14, 2008
MATT CURRY, PREACHING

Come and see what God is doing! Matt is a first year Brite Divinity School student. He is a friend and a colleague. He has worked extensively with the Emmaus community and Kairos Prison Ministry. Matt will bless us as he shares his vocations and preaches. O come, let us sing to the Lord!

PSALM 95

O come, let us sing to the LORD;
let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!
Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;
let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!
For the LORD is a great God,
and a great King above all gods.
In his hand are the depths of the earth;
the heights of the mountains are his also.
The sea is his, for he made it,
and the dry land, which his hands have formed.
O come, let us worship and bow down,
let us kneel before the LORD, our Maker!
For he is our God,
and we are the people of his pasture,
and the sheep of his hand.
O that today you would listen to his voice!

See you on September 14th! Good food and good food!

Love in Christ,

Lucia

A Word from the Pastor

Life in the Christ Lane

Because He lives I can face tomorrow,
Because He lives all fear is gone;
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living just because He lives. Bill and Gloria Gather

There are many instances in life when we get in a hurry, rush about, and forget that there is a still small voice that speaks to us. Let's start living life in the Christ lane. Then, when life's rush starts to get ahead of us, we can remember that because Christ lived, died, and rose again, we have become new persons in Christ. The old is gone. Behold, the new has come! It is because Christ holds our future that we need not fear.
Travel in the Christ lane! It's the only way to fully live.
I'll see you at the church house where we are going forth to Share the Joy!

Thanks be to God,

Lucia
