⚽🌎 Flat Jesus at the World Cup! 🌎⚽

Flat Jesus made it all the way to the World Cup and is reminding everyone that while teams may be divided by jerseys, we're all on the same team in God's eyes! 🙌

Flat Jesus had just one message:

"Love your neighbor... even if they're cheering for the other team!" 😆

🌳🌿The Sounds of Nature 🌿🌳
What a pleasure it is to begin outdoor worship and enjoy the ambience of nature in the shadow of the forest! Throughout the summer, the music at the 8:30 service will feature compositions inspired by nature and reminisce on the passing year. Peter Tchaikovsky's The Seasons is a set of 12 short piano pieces with each piece representing a specific month. This week will feature the cozy “At the Fireside” and a festive winter carnival. Robert Schumann's Forest Scenes features nine pieces featuring the encounters of a person wandering through the woods, and these will be sprinkled throughout various services as well.

WISE WORDS OF WISDOM “Bring on the bracelets, necklaces, oversized sunglasses, and flowy patterned garments of every kind. Life’s short. Wear the sweetheart neckline and the alligator belt, the red lipstick and the sparkly sandals”. (Lynette S-C from Atlanta)

I realized many years ago that God doesn't really care what I wear to church. What God really cares about is that I show up. That I listen to the Still Speaking Voice. That I practice what The Son instructed me to do in Matthew 25 - the "I was hungry and you fed me" passage. That I absorb the commandment to love one another, love neighbor, love life and bring it to fruition to the best of my ability. So when you see me at church in blue jeans or cargo shorts and a t-shirt, or bracelets, necklaces, oversized sunglasses, flowy patterned garments, a sweetheart neckline, an alligator belt, red lipstick, or sparkly sandals, please don't judge me by my sartorial choices. And I promise, I won't judge you by yours. Life is short. Let's just worship together and experience the love and acceptance of the Divine and each other. - Olivia
