Bringing The Light

The following words were printed on the front of the worship bulletin today:

"We come before God, not to glorify war, but to honor and celebratate those who walked into the chaos and evil that is war. None who have waded through evil, death and sorrow are untouched in body, mind or spirit; they are beloved to God. We all were affected and changed by Military Action, Armed Conflict, and war, and all are in need of reflection, renewal, comfort and healing."

{This Momet} Last Saturday

{This Moment} A Friday ritual. A single photo -no words- capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you are inspired to do the same leave a link for all to find and see. We wish you a lovely first weekend in June! xo

Unofficial Start to Summer!

Mother Nature must have looked at her calendar and realized that the unofficial start to summer is this weekend!  As a result, we have had amazing, summer like weather ever since this past Tuesday!  We leave you with a couple of pictures from yesterday, a day spent entirely outdoors much like the three days before it as well.  We'll be away from this space enjoying the long weekend together, but promise to return next week with lots of wonderful stories and pictures!  Have a safe Memorial Day weekend, friends!
