How Do I Know God is Talking to Me?
Dear Covenant friends and family,
How do you know if God is trying to tell you something?
How can you tell the difference between messages from God and your own thoughts?
Or maybe you are wondering if God even DOES talk to us?
We Presbyterians are a mixed bag of opinions and experience in these matters. On Sunday we will explore Samuel’s calling from God, Nathanael’s calling from Jesus, and your own calling from the Holy Spirit. We will also be ordaining and installing our new class of elders and deacons, always a powerful experience.
See you Sunday!
Tracy

Jan. 16–Feb. 13, 7pm, Lounge
The 12 Steps (used in recovery programs) are powerful spiritual tools for all of us. Franciscan monk Richard Rohr uses them, as do many psychologists, spiritual directors, and people dealing with life's “unmanageability.” In five weeks, we’ll explore the 12 steps as tools for drawing closer to God, living with integrity, and becoming free from old, destructive patterns. Led by
Tracy Keenan.
