We hope you will join us for Pentecost this Sunday! We will worship at 11AM in the Sanctuary as usual. Take a moment to read this wonderful poem below from A Sanctified Art:
--
A Blessing for the Seekers
Blessed are you who turn your face up to the sky,
who open your arms to feel the wind,
who notice all the things that we should notice.
Blessed are you who are fluent in wonder
and familiar with awe.
Blessed are you who, even now, dream dreams,
who have not lost hope,
who swear the glass is still half-full.
Blessed are you who plant trees
and sing the harmony,
who tell the children how this world can be magic.
Blessed are you who
walk and seek
and turn over every stone,
pointing out all the corners and colors
that God lives in.
Blessed are you.
Amen.
- Rev. Sarah (Are) Speed
