This past Sunday we celebrated our life together as a congregation. This was in response to the scripture text read that morning, Deuteronomy 26:11
Then you, together with the Levites and the aliens who reside among you, shall celebrate with all the bounty that the Lord your God has given to you and to your house.The Israelites celebrated when they brought the first fruits of the harvest to the temple. Resurrection celebrated as we brought our financial intentions for 2015, our Estimate of Giving cards, to the altar. We celebrated by giving thanks for the many blessings God has given us as individuals, families and as a congregation. We celebrated with music, special snacks and a great video.
I cannot share the special snacks but I can give you a glimpse at the great video we watched.
Thanks to all who joined the celebration by returning their Estimate of Giving card to the church office.
You can join the celebration by making sure your Estimate of Giving card is completed and sent back to the church office. If you did not receive an Estimate of Giving card in the mail, please call the office or pick one up at church. Our goal is to make sure this celebration includes every member of Resurrection. Thanks be to God.
Pastor John Keller
