Weekly Check-In - June 7, 2025
"How does God go on breathing his Spirit into you, the Spirit of Jesus? He breathes it into you through the work and witness of the person next to you, as you breathe into them." -Rowan Williams
Our worship team has been at work to help create a worship space that visually enhances our experience of the Day of Pentecost tomorrow. The paraments have been changed to red. There are a variety of other special elements to prepare us for the day. Thanks to those folks for their extra time devoted to our worship preparation for tomorrow.
I want to also thank the folks who have read scripture for us over these past several months. Just as there were many voices at Pentecost, I think there is a benefit to hearing many voices in worship sharing the Word of God with us from the Bible.
The choir has been an amazing blessing to us and we thank Judy Morris, our director, and Joyce Jaco, our accompanist for their leadership. Thanks to each member of the choir for raising their voice in praise and helping us to more fully experience God's presence in our worship.
One more reminder - Pentecost is the one day of the year when the liturgical color is red. The red reminds us of the tongues of fire that represent God's gift of the Holy Spirit, and which alighted on the heads of the disciples in the story Mike Streible will read tomorrow from Acts 2. Hope to see you in worship!
