Minister’s Musings… It is rapidly approaching February, Valentine’s may, President’s Day, as well as, even more importantly, the beginning of the Lenten Season. We will be joining Valley Christian for their annual Strove Tuesday pancake meal and service on the 5th, Ash Wednesday is on theĀ 6th (no service), and we are moving quickly toward a major event in Christendom, the celebration of Easter ( the resurrection of Jesus). Baptism classesare being offered in anticipation of a service of baptism during our Easter service. We will be sharing in some soup, salad and bread, meals with a time for discussion, reflection and worship on a few of the Lenten Sunday’s following our traditional worship (stay tuned). Much is, thanks be to God, going on in which we can all participate. I will end this edition of “Minister’s Musing” by sharing a portion of the Gospel of Matthew 28:18-20, as we prepare for the coming of Lent and Easter; “And Jesus came and said to them. ‘AII authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, Iam with you always, to the end of the age.’” (NRSV) May these words excite, sustain, and encourage us to be the light of God to the people we meet. Blessings, Alan |
