Blessed Thanksgiving Season!
Well, the church year is almost over and Advent begins a new church year. Happy New Year, almost! I trust everyone has their winter clothes laid out and ready for chilly, cold & wet Ohio weather- perfect for putting out winter lights in preparation for Advent & Christmas. If you’re like me, you find the coldest and wettest days to start stringing the lights on the porch and trees outdoors. Ugh!
Thanksgiving fast approaches – the holiday offers another opportunity to reflect and give thanks for endings and new beginnings. Thanksgiving gives us pause for providing opportunities for the congregation to reflect on God’s guidance and goodness over the past year and to anticipate in gratitude where God will be leading in the year to come.
A giant thanks to all our church officers, workers and leaders and all that have served and continue to serve faithfully in the church. God has blessed us in so many ways and I thank God for each and every one of you and the wisdom, energy, love and respect you all bring to your commitments – thank you!
May God bless you during this festive season,
Pastor Kelly
