Pastor’s weekly newsletter | 01-21-2022

We continue to hope and pray that you are safe and well on this Friday morning.

This Sunday we will have a special saxophone quartet playing a beautiful Bach piece right after the sermon. John Penkoske worked to arrange them coming to our church and I thank John for working out the details and I thank the quartet for coming and keeping our cost quite low. A great blessing for us!

I will be preaching once again from the Book of Ephesians which is so incredibly rich in theology. I will use the text from Ephesians 2:1-10 and focusing on verse 10 which reads: “For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works.” What does it mean to be God’s workmanship? It’s a very odd word to use in today’s language but the Greek word is quite common for us and we will see what it is God is trying to do in our lives today.

Our Secretary/Office Manager, Maria Slavik is now working in the mornings, Monday – Thursday from 9-12 if you wish to stop by the office. I will come into the office Monday – Wednesday from 3-5 PM to cover more hours. This will give us more visibility to offer our members and visitors time to swing by the church office. I will continue using my home office as well but remain available anytime.

Please keep in your prayers this morning Barry Gibson and Beth Childress. May God bless them and comfort them this day.
