Dear Church,
One of the most important roles of the church is to provide space for God’s people to be formed together to be Christ’s Body in and for the world. You have heard it said, “You are what you eat.” Indeed, we are also what we listen to, what we read, what we focus our attention on. This newsletter is F U L L of opportunities for us to be FORMED in the Way of Jesus. Through worship, prayer, small group studies, choir, mission, Sunday School and working together for the Kingdom, we mysteriously find we are being shaped by God’s grace into Christ for the world and for each other.
I invite you to prayerfully consider the opportunities for FORMATION that are offered through the ministry of this congregation. Just as it takes a certain kind of practice to be a good musician or athlete, it also takes a certain kind of practice in becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ. I am glad to be in training with you.
Growing together in grace,
Pastor Grace
