Over the last few weeks, I, like many of you, have found myself troubled and overwhelmed by the waves of bad news that continue to flood the airwaves.  

In times like these we must remember the promise of the Spirit’s presence with us everywhere and in all things.  But we must also be reminded of the need we all have for community and connection!

For followers of Jesus, church is not an event we attend but a community we are born into.  Church is where we challenge, encourage, and comfort one another!  Church is where we share both burdens and blessings. When we gather for worship, prayers, fellowship, or study, we remind one another of God’s grace. In times like these, especially, we need one another! 

More than once over the last few weeks, a word or note from a brother or sister has been just what I needed to keep going.  God has gifted us to one another to care for one another!  

Stay connected!  We need it. And, someone is relying on you!

In our times where communities have been reconfigured by our technology and the way we connect to one another has made the world smaller – this can be a powerful tool when used properly!  When we can’t touch one another – we can still reach one another!

Stay connected! 

²⁴ And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, ²⁵ not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

Hebrews 10:24–25

Good Morning, I love you all!
