March 21st, 2010 "This Is the Work of Love" Jill McAllister - 10:45am
What better day than the first day of spring to renew our commitments
to People’s Church? What better day to stand again on the side of love? As we do each year, we’ll shake off the tiredness of winter, and we’ll shake off little pieces
of disdain and discomfort which may still be attached to money, and focus instead on how our time, talent, and treasures can be joined to build our power to make the world, and our church, a place of health, and freedom, and justice. Please read the information about stewardship in this newsletter (page 5), and come prepared to make your annual pledge. We will see again what we can accomplish together, because we know it matters!

The Fourth-Monday Lunch will meet at noon on March 22 in Room 6. We were snowed out last month, so this will still be the first of a new series of monthly day-time potluck lunches, especially for those hoping to make closer connections and friends at People’s and especially for those who don’t like to drive at night. Soup and bread will be provided this month – bring something else to share. All are welcome. |
Between Us
A church or religious congregation is many things for many people. It is a place for learning, a place for healing from some of life’s pain, a place to belong when we feel too alone, a place to share in the work of building justice and peace, a place to be with others who can both comfort and inspire us, and more...Full Article
