Spring Will Dawn


In the midst of our winter hopelessness and despair.
Let us speak of hope.
We can be reborn and recreated in the life and love of God.  
Spring will dawn.
Let us enter the wilderness with Christ.
May he help us rediscover hope and purpose
and rekindle the light and warmth of
God's love in our lives.

Pastor's Page

It was with great trepidation when I decided--after time in prayer and with the help of the Holy Spirit--to spend this fall discerning our vision for Children's Christian Ministry and suspend Sunday School for a season.

Our "Season of Prayer' continues. We started the school year receiving names of our kids we'd pray for throughout the year, we made time for silent prayer during Sunday worship service, or prayer circle meets every Wednesday at  7pm--it's all about prayer and it should be.

The disciples 'tarried' in prayer before they began their ministry (check out ACTS!) we're in good company people!
I confess, I've been anxious, not having Sunday school for the kids.  Prayer has helped me alleviate some of that anxiety and already the benefits of the Season of Prayer are manifest and revealed in pro-found ways.

Thank you for your willingness to participate in this Season of Prayer, in whatever way you are.  Thank you for joining in all our discernment for guidance and direction. Thank you for being the body of Christ God is calling us to be.
