Happy New Year (again)!

I’ve been back in town about a week now, and it’s good to be back.  This Sunday, we will be doing our annual renewal of baptismal commitments, and joining together for a potluck dinner after church. 

Why do we renew our baptismal commitments annually?  I believe this helps us to renew our commitment to Christ and remember what we are all about.  It can be a way of examining ourselves to see whether we are following through with what we have said we would do.  This helps us to create the structures in our lives to guide us into greater faithfulness to Christ. 

This week, Phil G. volunteered to cover our Fellowship Hall windows with plastic to keep the drafts down, and he also installed a thermostat box for us.  Thank you Phil! 

I look forward to worshipping with you this Sunday!
