Our first Sunday together was truly a Celebration! We remembered those who have gone before us – the saints among us who have died. We put their pictures up on the communion table and they were present with us. We saw kids in costumes and kids who “came as themselves.” We listened to an incredible anthem by the choir about light. We heard that God has created us, called us by name, redeemed us, and then says to us, “You are precious in my sight and I love you.” Each one of you is precious and as we begin our journey together during this Interim period, we are invited to see that which is precious in each other. Don’t forget I have red vines in my office if you want to stop by and say hello! Beth
