Happy Friday, Fellowship Family!
It's wonderful to come back after a relaxing weekend of rest and recovery to hear that not only all of the weekend's events ran smoothly but also that my invited guest, Rev. John Johnson, felt warmly received by all who spoke with him on Sunday. I knew that I had nothing to worry about! I had a great time away with some friends.
I look forward to being back with you in worship this Sunday, when we will turn our focus to a unique interaction between Jesus and a sick person. It's not that those interactions between Jesus and a sick person are unique, but with what the person is sick. If you're interested, you can "read ahead" and read through Luke's gospel - specifically chapter 8.
After being together on Sunday, I encourage you to join me and members of the Faith Formation Committee on Monday night at Kickback Jack's Restaurant off of New Garden Road (right near the New Garden/Bryan Boulevard junction) at 8pm for the first Social Spark event! We will gather to enjoy our time together - maybe we can share some appetizers and whatever beverage wets your whistle so we can ignite conversation around some current events, looking at them through a faith-based lens.
Please make sure check out that announcement - and others below - for more information about what's going on in our church's life. I look forward to seeing you on Sunday - whether in-person or online!
With gratitude,
Pastor Kathryn

Wondering what to do with all of those grocery shopping bags? The Missions committee will be collecting “gently used” plastic grocery bags for Backpack Beginnings. Please bring any you don’t use to church with you, leaving them on the Missions table in the Dogwood Lobby closest to the double doors leading towards the classrooms.
