Happy New Year!
Yet, it's been a toubling week...
A violent mob was directed to storm the Capitol during Constitutional business. They did. People died. 
Covid has had its most vengeful week. Far too many people have died. 

So we need hope. We need each other. We need to build a stable healthy society.

Earlier this week I interviewed two of our own on life’s journey. Check out the video with Sam Bezilla and Sarah Tel as they talk about what this weird year has looked like for them and why they are interested in building a hospitable future, even if it is one 2x4 at a time. 

Despite other troubling news, may we be encouraged by our friends in Christ. And may we all be tools of Christ and bring his constructive peace to this world. Thanks Sam and Sarah. -Mark

"On Life's Journey"
All Ages Classes for January
The January intergenerational all ages sessions continue with a twist. Instead of featuring content geared towards youth, this year’s content is our youth. For the next two Sundays, Mark Edwards will talk with former Nassau youth (now young adults) about how their years and experiences with Nassau Pres helped direct them on the journey of life.  

This week, Sarah Tel and Sam Bezilla discuss their commitment to building homes in Appalachia and on the Olympic Peninsula.

Small Groups Resume in January
You need to be prayed for. You need to be told words of hope. You need to live a sweet life. 
Sweet Life Groups should fire up again this coming week.

Contact each other to say Happy New Year! Or let me (Mark) know if you need a new group. 

Mine? They’ve been sweet. May yours be too.
Music Notes
"As long as we live, there is never enough singing."
Martin Luther

Truly. And through singing and music, we find new ways to hold the light of God’s love in all we do. Spend some time making music, and give yourself time to breath, to find healing, resilience, strength and peace. This is an important part of your mental health and self care. EACH of you are a child of God, and you are deeply and forever loved - that is something to sing about.
