"The Deep Down"
by Darrel Bompastore
Every day I try to laugh.
May it be caused by
my own words, or actions.
I listen to other people.
Some are funny
with the words they use.
Yesterday a word was used
that I hadn't heard for some time.
The person who used it
got me to think,
which got me to laugh.
Today I can't remember
which word it was.
Today it's raining
but that won't stop me laughing.
I will seek a good laugh
from someone
or dig deep within myself.

Faith Matters
, which debuts this Sunday, September 24, from 11:45 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., in the Lawrence Room (following Coffee Hour). This Sunday join us at Faith Matters to share, cultivate, and grow our capacity for "Holy Curiosity."

Suggestion Box
Your suggestions are wanted and needed as we make plans for the fall. Write your ideas and place them in the suggestion box

Please speak to Jeffrey Seamans or
Deacon Cynthia Pape if you are interested in serving at the altar during our services, or serving with the Altar Guild
to assist with preparation and cleaning up after services.

long-time and faithful friend of the Cathdral is in nursing care and

Reminder: Pledge Payments
We have received pledges from 21 households/individuals totaling almost 2,600 hours of service to our community, almost 6,000 hours of prayer, and over $50,000. Please stay up to date with your pledges payments so that we can stay on target with our budgeting.
