This past week, we had the honor of holding a Celebration of Life for one of our members. He was a farmer, a veteran, a husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and a dear friend to many here in our community. It was amazing to see the so many people come together and arrange such a special tribute to honor him. He will be greatly missed. Rest in paradise, Wayne.

Good afternoon, friends. During Sunday's worship service, Pastor Carolyn shared something with the congregation in her sermon that beautiful correlated with Phil's message the week before during our Laity Sunday service. "Christ has been made the head of the church, his body. His body, the church, is the fullness of Christ. Friends, there is no Plan B. WE are the church today. We are Christ's body in this place and time. WE are the hands and feet of Jesus in this corner of the world. Christ is fully present in the world today because Christ's church is full present in the world today."

Her words were a beautiful reminder of what we are capable of as Christians when we represent Christ and our church in today's world. How will you be present in our community? How will you act as the hands and feet of Christ to help others today?
