This Week at Chapel of Our Saviour

Going for it. I am really excited about the fall y’all! Chapel of Our Saviour is buzzing with all kinds of wonderful ministry. I hope that you sense that the Spirit that is alive among us every time we gather for worship. When we pray together and sing together and break bread together it is so obvious that the Spirit of the Lord is very surely in this place. Sunday visitors feel it right away. They always remark about what an amazing community of faith this is. This is a very special part of God’s church and I am grateful that every one of you is a part of our common prayer here.   As we begin our fall season of ministry, I invite you to join with your elected vestry leadership in a time of parish-wide discussion this fall about where God is calling us as we dream together and listen together for the Spirit’s fresh leading. We are poised for significant growth in the next few years and parish leaders are dedicated to nurturing and encouraging that growth.  And, as always, I am available to you if you’ve got questions about what’s happening around the church, or if you’d like to think about new ways that you might get involved in ministry here, for prayer or to just simply to walk with you through the joys and struggles of life. Please let me, your pastor, know how I can be a resource and support for you as together we grow in faith. I love being your pastor and I love every one of you!  Whether you’ve been praying here for years or are contemplating attending a service for the second time, thank you for being a part of this growing and vibrant community of faith. I can’t wait to see what God will show us together in the days to come. With thanks to God for the ministry that we share. David
