SONG OF THE MONTH

"God, Whose Giving Knows No Ending" - Hymn #606 from the Chalice Hymnal


God, whose giving knows no ending,

from your rich and endless store,

nature's wonder, Jesus' wisdom,

costly cross, grave's shattered door:

gifted by you, we turn to you,

offering up ourselves in praise;

thankful song shall rise forever,

gracious donor of our days.


Skills and time are ours for pressing

toward the goals of Christ, your Son:

all at peace in health and freedom,

races joined, the church made one.

Now direct our daily labor,

lest we strive for self alone;

born with talents, make us servants

fit to answer at Your throne.


Treasure too you have entrusted,

gain through powers your grace conferred;

ours to use for home and kindred,

and to spread the gospel Word.

Open wide our hands, in sharing,

as we heed Christ's ageless call,

healing, teaching, and reclaiming,

serving you by loving all.


This will be sung to the traditional tune of "Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing".

COFFEE HOUSE - TOMORROW NIGHT!

BREAKFAST FELLOWSHIP

Saturday Breakfast Fellowship - 3/18/2023


I’m going to restart Saturday Breakfast Fellowship and I hope all of you have the third Saturday of the month open. The first meeting will be on March 18 at 8:30 AM for Breakfast, fellowship, and discussion.

This spring, I want to focus on faith: what it is to different religions, what it is to Christians, and what it is to us as individuals.


To start with, we’ll look at faith in various religions. There are a number of links below to articles which talk about faith from the standpoint of Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and Buddhists.

Everyone is welcome to join us on Saturday, March 18 at 8:30 AM.


For more information or to add yourself to the Saturday Breakfast Fellowship email list, please contact Tom at tomdan4@gmail.com
