Take a Moment Prayer : Week of Jan 25

I woke up today, God, to a new day of joys and challenges. I look forward to the moments that I can see and feel your presence in my life. I anticipate that you will open my awareness to opportunities to answer your call to reach out to others. Sometimes, all that is needed is a kind word or a prayer. Help me to not take this lightly; but instead, see the power put forth through these efforts to extend healing and hope. Other times, more is required from me to answer your call. Admittedly, at some of those times, the call is a challenge for me to accept. I don’t always feel I have the gifts required from me to do what you ask. And sometimes, I confess, I make other things or tasks a priority in my life because they are easier or more appealing to me. Send your Holy Spirit to move in me to trust your power to help me fulfill the tasks you ask of me. I want my life to glorify you and be a guide to help others to know you and all that you want to bring to their lives. This is my prayer, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Greetings, Church Family,
The Search Committee would like to express our heartfelt thanks to the congregation and the Leadership Team for your support throughout the survey process. Your participation was tremendous and played a vital role in helping us complete all the information needed for the church profile. We want to share a bit of background on what has taken place so far, as well as what comes next.

Throughout the fall, our committee met regularly. Our first meeting was with Doug Veal, DEM, to review steps and requirements in the search process. We reviewed our previously submitted profile and discussed the best path forward to completing the 14‑page profile by December. This profile offers a snapshot of who we are as a church and is designed to help potential pastoral candidates get to know us.
