If we look a bit flat on your screen, be assured that we are entirely three dimensional saints and sinners in this church. And the saints and sinners part comes straight from our 16 th century ancestor Martin Luther who imparted on us that we, the people of God, always live within the grace of God, regardless of how much we mess up. (And trust us, we do. With some frequency.)
In our life as the people of God, we seek to follow Jesus of Nazareth. On some days, that’s a joy. On others, it’s easier said than done. But we are in community and remind each other not to take ourselves too seriously, but to take seriously the journey that we are on. So if you, too, are on a journey, or simply are longing to be on one, come and see. As always, there will be bread and wine shared in Communion, and water for baptism and oil for healing, and we’d love to share these gifts of God with you.
