This Sunday our church will be participating in the community Pentecost service at Danvers Presbyterian Church at 10:00 a.m. James Munro of Operation Stand Down will be providing the sermon. Because I do not have a sermon to post about this week, I thought I would post about some of the new things we are doing as a church. Beginning in July, we will be having a Thursday evening Bible study. Details will be forthcoming as to the topic, but it is my hope this will be an opportunity to ask questions which we may not otherwise feel comfortable asking about our faith in the church context. It will also be an opportunity to get to know each other on a deeper level, and dessert will be provided! We have also begun a new ministry I am calling “compassionate casseroles” through which we can provide food to people in the community who have experienced a loss or illness. For those who are interested in something more sporting, some of our church members are meeting for an evening of trap shooting on May 19, June 16, and August 14. We are also working on a slightly different worship service for the fourth Sundays of the month in the summer months. For more information on this and other events, check out the newsletters also posted on our website. This Sunday as we celebrate Pentecost, let us also celebrate how the Holy Spirit continues to move and work in our congregation.
