I also encourage you to join in the journey of reading, “Let Your Life Speak” by Parker Palmer. We have given away 90 or so of these books, but still have 10 or so to give away this Sunday, so pick yours up and reflect on “what a long time it can take to become the person one has always been!” This Sunday, February 23rd we will be focusing specifically on the insight of this book and people will be sharing what resonated with them from reading the book. I hope you can join me as we reflect on how Palmer reminds us, like the Bible often does, that fulfillment “comes from a voice inside calling me to be the person I was born to be.”

As we move into Lent, with Ash Wednesday next week, part of that journey is an invitation to learning and growth as a personal devotion. For instance, as you can see in the announcements below, you can sign up to receive a daily email through 40Form, which is also part of our focus on calling. This email will offer you an opportunity to reflect on your calling, which is an important thing to think about regardless of your age. Also, during Lent, we will be having another “Soup and Study” series on Thursdays starting on March 12th on the passion story in the gospel of Matthew. See the details of this opportunity in the announcements below.

So, during Lent, I pray that you will seek out ways our ministry can help you strengthen your rootedness in your faith, and that you will take advantage of opportunities to invest in who you are as a loved and loving child of God. See you in church.

Grace and Peace,

Rev. Herb Taylor

Pastor
