THIS WEEK'S AFFIRMATION

THIS WEEKS SPIRITUAL PRACTICE

This week Community members shared how they were experiencing the value of GRATITUDE:

  • I am GRATEFUL to have my husband Steve here with me.
  • "I am still GRATEFUL for my new business and I gave you the wrong website last week. The correct one is: youramazingmind.com."
  • I am still experiencing GRATITUDE for the wonderful welcome, connection, and respectful treatment I received last week attending the MARTI Mediterranean Food Festival last week after our Sunday service.
  • I am experiencing GRATITUDE for a healing of differences between myself and neighbors.
  • I am experiencing GRATITUDE for the family I met at the first MARTI Mediterranean Food Festival and my growing relationship with this family especially their two little girls that I get to take under my wing and be a bonus grandmother.
  • I am experiencing GRATITUDE that our longtime friend is joining us here today.
  • I am experiencing GRATITUDE as I become more aware of and sensitive to the truth that is illuminating me and my entire family.
  • I am experiencing GRATITUDE that my 2 sons that are in harms way are both still with us.
  • I am experiencing GRATITUDE for the manifestation of the vision we set of having a band.
  • I am experiencing GRATITUDE for the love that surrounds me.

ENGAGEMENT OPPORTUNITIES

2025 ANNUAL PLEDGE PROGRAM

A few points of clarification.

  • We ask everyone to renew their membership and giving pledge so:
  • you have an opportunity to recommit, and
  • we know you're choosing to continue as a member of the Columbia CSL Community.
  • If you already have a recurring giving set up in Breeze and you're choosing to continue it into 2025, you only need to complete the 2025 Pledge Form.
  • If you have ANY additional questions, please reach out to me directly.

Much love,

Rev. Rafe
