Sunday Oct. 30: Fall Harvest and Garden Celebration
The season that we call “Ordinary Time” is long – nearly half the year! Ordinary Time spans Pentecost to the first Sunday of Advent. It contains no major feast days, and no changing of the church colors. And yet, as the writer Jan Richardson suggests, the Scriptures tell of a God who tended to show up when humans were doing nothing in particular. Sarah. Moses. The Samaritan Woman. In this season God reminds us that each moment holds the possibility of encountering the sacred. May it be so! We’ll begin Ordinary Time by following the lectionary gospel readings.
Sun. Sept. 25: Rev. Melody Young, James 3:13 – 4:3,7,8a
Sun. Oct. 2: Luke 17:5-10
Stewardship: Grace In Action
At the heart of the Gospel is the truth that God is a gracious, generous giver. In the Scripture stories that ground us, God is always building, mending, repairing and creating. Since we’re made in God’s image, we’re born to be gracious and generous as well. In the coming weeks, using the lectionary gospel readings, we’ll reflect on God’s Grace In Action, and God’s invitation to us to invest in the mission of Fircrest Presbyterian Church and plant seeds for the future.
