Grace to you and peace, from God our Creator and the Lord Jesus Christ! I would first like to remind you that we will have two opportunities for worship tomorrow, with the second being our annual, ecumenical Thanksgiving service, which will be held in our sanctuary at 4:00 p.m.  We will be joined by members of St. Francis and the BH Baptist churches, and their pastors will be leading the service with me.  

Our scripture text for the morning encourages us not to worry, and you may recall with me the familiar, “What, me worry?” with a picture of Mad Magazine’s Alfred E. Neuman’s face in mind.  It is not always easy to set aside our fears and worries.  We humans seem somehow predisposed to worry in a way that is not helpful to us.  Jesus’ words and our long view of God’s activity in the world may help us move toward a goal of greater peace.  In a moment in time in which our fears are being stoked by those who might ease them, we come together in a season of thanksgiving to pray for peace and to bolster our combined efforts to work for good.  As we sing out our praises and bow our heads to the One who made and loves us, we encourage one another.  

Blessings and peace, Lisa

Worship at Home Materials:  We will be offering worship in-person as well as on Zoom this coming Sunday. Coffee & tea are available after the church service.  Masks are suggested in the sanctuary and required during the singing of hymns, as the virus spreads most easily with the projection of droplets.
