Thank you to all who participated in our congregational vocation discussion last Sunday! We had a full house and many helpful insights shared.

We used this time to discuss our sense of calling as a congregation. We like the image of a path that we walk together. In scripture, this path is called liberation, release, redemption. Jesus said, “when I am lifted up, I will draw all people to myself.” (John 12)

Happy Easter! Christ is Risen!

“They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen!” Luke 24:2–6
