I had a great time yesterday. Several of us were at the state Capitol as part of the Joint Religious Legislative Coalition Day on the Hill. I won't go into it here, but I will here on my blog. The bottom line: I feel more like a Minnesotan now that I've met my legislators. Of course, I could feel more like a Minnesotan just by driving in all this snow! I'm coming to like it. That's something, right? I hope your day is doing well, and that you're looking forward to this weekend as much as I am. As a family, we have a full weekend with Encore at Eagan High School, a speech tournament at Eastview High School, and of course, to keep ourselves centered through it all, church on Sunday. Here's what we have coming up as a church community: Game Night Tonight Unless I send out an email later saying the roads are just too slippery, we're still on for games and fellowship tonight at 7:00. If you want to bring a game to play, by all means, bring it! Muffins and Mimosas Saturday The women of the church are invited to Debbie and Angela's tomorrow morning at 10:00. A good time will be had by all. Sunday Focus The Sunday morning 9:30 study hour will look at the idea of covenant, particularly the covenant traditions associated with Abraham in Genesis. The children's Sunday School will focus on one covenant story in particular, from Genesis 15, and feature special guest storyteller Carol Oslund. Then in worship, we will look at how, by relying on God's unconditional love, we are able to move From Despair to Hope. Centering Prayer The Centering Prayer group meets Monday night from 7 – 8 p.m. Wednesday Night Series to Begin From the website, where we have a new Wednesday Nights page:
Again, I hope you have a lovely weekend. Be warm. Be safe. See you on Sunday, if not before! Blessings and Peace. |
