Sometimes, the unexpected visitor is God’s angel in disguise. Sometimes, the interruption is the blessing.

What needs to happen in your life so that your perspective can shift, shift to being open and aware of God’s multitude of blessings? Three deep breaths every day? Every hour?

A prayer partner to remind you to practice gratitude and openness as you also remind them? More time in nature? Gathering with a walking/hiking group to refresh your soul in the beauty of God’s outdoors?

Thank you!!

Thank you to all of you who volunteered on Sunday at Bristol's America 250th Anniversary Celebration on our lawn and Federal
Hill!

It was hot and a little muggy AND it was a wonderful day.

We helped cub scouts learn more about being a good citizen.

We welcomed a person to join us as we set up - helping him choose health over addiction (his words).

We handed out stickers, crosses, temporary tattoos and little Jesus figures.

We provided much needed bathroom access - and air conditioning.

We met a man who is related to one of the founders of Bristol and the Ecclesiastical Society of New Cambridge.

We prayed with and for people.

We invited new people to come hear God's good news!

Thank you all for your time and energy and enthusiasm.

It was a good day of ministry.

Always in Christ's love,
Kristen
