Beloved of God,
Open My Hands, Lord.
We use our hands to serve, to share, to make music, to write, to bless, to play, to work, and so many other things. This week we explore how our hands do God's work in the world.
What is the work of your hands? How does God use your hands to bless the world?
In peace,
Pastor Sarah

Open our Lives, Lord!
During Lent we will continue to explore our emotions from a biblical perspective. Emotions are a huge part of our lives, whether we admit to them or not! How we deal with our feelings makes a difference to our relationships with our family, our friends, ourselves, and God.
Come explore Anger, Grief, and Joy on Sunday mornings. You'll find that God is opening our lives through our emotions all the time!
