Dear friends,
In the book of Proverbs, we inherit a tradition from the ancient Hebrew people that taught their children about how to live a good life by inviting them to have a personal relationship with Lady Wisdom. Yes, wisdom personified as a woman, and not just any woman, but the being whom the Proverbs declare was the first of God's creations - before Adam, before the amoeba, before the mountains and seas - Lady Wisdom.
The Proverbs teach that attending to the ways of Lady Wisdom is the key to restoring our lives when we're feeling run down, a bit cynical about the world, or just ho hum.
So, I hope you'll worship with us on Sunday at 9:30 or 11:00 in the sanctuary
or online as we consider
Proverbs 8.22-35 and "The Art of Active Recovery."
Make a note to arrive or log-on early for the 9:30 service: Shanka Pettis will be leading the band in a special 20-minute music presentation in celebration of her summer here at Covenant, which wraps up this weekend. We're so grateful to her for leading us in worship with excellence and beauty.
And, mark your calendars to join us next weekend when our 8:45 Chapel and 11:00 Fellowship Hall services resume.
I look forward to seeing you soon!
Jessica
