In Isaiah the people are advised to look to their spiritual ancestors as the rock from which they were hewn. Jesus declares that the church will be built on the rock of Peter’s bold confession of faith. God’s word of reconciliation and God’s mercy are keys to the church’s mission. Paul urges us to not be conformed to this world but to offer our bodies as a living sacrifice, using our individual gifts to build up the body of Christ. From the table we go forth to offer our spiritual worship through word and deed.
And, for your information I thought I would send you the Christmas letter we sent to our friends and family this past week! See you Sunday. Pastor Rich.
Dear Family and Friends, August, 2026
We’ve all heard of things associated with “Christmas in July?” Well, this is a “Christmas Letter in August” from Margy and Rich. We haven’t done a Christmas letter in some time, and I know that trying to do one in December just doesn’t work for me (Rich, the scribe). So here you go. Feel free to read, toss or write “Return to Sender” on the envelope it arrived in…..(edited to end here.)
