Fall Festival tonight! Come support the youth and enjoy Halloween food and fun. I believe we are having barbecue as well as potluck items brought in by the youth.

"Without solitude it is virtually impossible to live a spiritual life. Solitude begins with a time and place for God, and him alone. If we really believe not only that God exists but also that he is actively present in our lives - healing, teaching, and guiding - we need to set aside a time and space to give him our undivided attention. Jesus says, "Go to your private room and , when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in that secret place" (Matthew 6:6). " - From Making All Things New by Henri J. M. Nouwen

We are beginning a three month stretch of busyness and marketing and priorities that may or may not be the same as our Lord has. Intentionally schedule on your calendars some private God time every week through the end of the year!!

Grace and Peace be with you
