Pawlet Community Church

06/01/2026

Today was a Fifth Sunday and on fifth Sundays we do "different things" at the Pawelt Community Church! Today, we had an Open House and invited the community to join us for a Breakfast Buffet followed by the dedication and blessing of our new lift! If you weren't able to join us, you are welcome to come anytime and take a ride on the lift, enabling easy access to the sanctuary from the bottom floor for those who find stairs, especially steep and curving stairs, challenging. Thanks to Rod Hawkins for his work on coordinating the project.

"In Open Mind, Open Heart, Thomas Keating writes, 'Our awakening to the presence and action of the Spirit is the unfolding of Christ's resurrection in us. ' This is a profound mystery, simultaneously a collective vision and a practical means for living - full of paradoxes of dreaming and waking, ancient and new, past and present. With the Spirit, we seek continual inspiration to live more fully into the resurrection" - Amy Frykholm, Journey with Jesus
