Happy Birthday Everyone!
Tomorrow, May 25, is the birthday of the church – also known as Pentecost! I hope you can join us. Both the Sanctuary and the Journey Café look spectacular in all the fiery colors of Pentecost. We usually encourage you to wear red on Pentecost, but feel free to experiment with yellows or oranges as well. My sermon tomorrow is entitled, “Birthday Presents.” We will be thinking about the gifts of the Spirit and how we might use them to honor God. Tomorrow is also our Memorial Garden remembrance (after each service) during which we will remember those who have passed away in the last year. It promises to be a special day.
