Dear Friends in Christ,
Hope that you're all doing great, this first week of the Easter Season. He is Risen!
Although I am getting off to a slightly shaky start, there is a lot for us to do, this side of the Resurrection Day!
I will not be hosting yoga yet, possibly starting next Tuesday.
Tomorrow and Friday - Exercise, Eat and Pray is meeting at 10AM
Tomorrow at 5:30PM, Elders are called to a Session meeting. Let's meet in the Library, if possible, because the acoustics are better. We have a lot of organizational items to discuss and will probably not be able to get to everything we want to talk about. Let's just prioritize and plan for how to follow up on those things. God's the boss after all. God will help us figure it all out. I'm working up that Agenda today.
Another big thank you to all who have been checking in on me, including those who made sure that I was quite well-fed on Easter! Thank you for the many sympathy cards and your kindnesses.
Prayers:
David Short's family
Vicki Watson's family
Ryan's grandpa, Francis - for health and strength, and the chance to travel from Hawaii to Nex Mexico!
Teresa Gallegos Brake - continuing to heal after heart surgery
Dorothy Randals - at Autumn Blessings
Dr. Corey's clinic, and for her employees' health
Thanksgiving for health providers and prayers of safety for them and their families
Students, teachers and their families
Those who have suffered losses in this community - there are quite a few.
Lynn Hawkins, preparing to move to Tucumcari
For those who are alone or lonely, suffering from depression, anxiety or addictions
Attention Crafty People: Friends, I have been kicking an idea around that maybe a cool thing to bring our members together would perhaps be a monthly craft activity. If you're a knitter, a painter, or any kind of creative person who would like to get together with others, and see what each other is working on. It could be a Sunday afternoon, like a reincarnation of the Tanglers group. If this interests you, please let me know. I can run it by the Session for approval. (could be an opportunity for outreach too)
It was a great Easter Sunday! It was wonderful to see so many of you appear! Did we also not enjoy the music? Thank you so much to Marge, Kenna and Emily for their musical ministry, making Easter extra special. Thanks also to Robin for bringing a basket of tasty treats to share with us all.
Friends, you are the church, the Risen Body of Christ. Let's now go and Be the Church in God's World this week.
Much love,
Rev. Amy Pospichal
