Dear Friends,
After the 40-day season of Lent, we have nearly arrived at the end of our sacred journey. On Sunday, through worship and song, we will celebrate the glorious mystery of the Resurrection--the gift of new life made possible through the sacrifice of the Son of God.
Sadly, Stations Through The Square, scheduled for Good Friday tomorrow, will NOT be taking place this year. FPC was ready to host but the organizers decided that it would be best to cancel. Hopefully, Stations will return next year. Thank you to everyone who volunteered to participate.
I look forward to worshiping with you on Sunday. But then, immediately following worship, I will embark on a glorious journey of my own when I start on my Sabbatical. For the next three months I will engage in spiritual renewal through rest and travel. My good friend, Rev. Warner Durnell, will be with you for the time that I am away. I will be unavailable until July, so I ask that you direct any needs or concerns to the church office.
Easter Blessings,
|
