Happy New Year!

"For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven..."

I will be preaching on Ecclesiastes 3 on New Year's Eve, the 5 o'clock worship service. For baby boomers we remember "Turn, Turn, Turn" a popular anthem of the late 60's. Whenever that last digit turns over on our calendar there is always some fear and hope. In 1999 we were under the anxious weight of the Y2K scare. In the past years we have been hoping for a better economy, for companies to begin hiring more employees.

For Christians, the birth of Christ has brought a new sense of hope and expectation. We await the Kingdom of God...the good business of God is fill the earth. What "season" is it for you? Hope? Fear? A time to plant? A time to harvest?


Sunday we will gather for one service at 9 am. This will be a Christmas Lessons and Carols Celebration. Many of our college age youth will be leading music and participating in worship.

Happy New Year!
Pr David
