Winter 20/21 Online Calendar & Newsletter

Let us go right into the presence of God with sincere hearts fully trusting him. Hebrews 10:22

Current Safety Protocol: Wear masks indoors and social distance. Wash hands often. Please stay home if you are not feeling well.

What an interesting experience these last 11 months have been. I keep asking myself "where I am placing my hope?" Each and every moment I face a new challenge, I must keep my hope and my priorities firmly focused on Jesus and his Kingdom. I keep praying for his perspective in the midst of this Covid-19 ordeal and each new obstacle coming my way. No doubt we will be talking about this for years to come. I want to look back and remember that my 1st passion was to do this God's way, despite the mistakes I made along the way. Jesus, guide each one of us and show us the opportunities. May peace be with each of us through the power of God's spirit! Amen
