Beloved of God,
At the annual meeting we adopted a "Loving Behaviors List." These are the ways we will strive to interact with one another so that we can best be about God's work in the world. The full list is posted outside the sanctuary and will soon be beautifully displayed in the narthex.
In the weeks to come we are going to examine the list together in worship and find ways to take it to heart and live it out in our lives. This week we'll look at the following:
We, as members, leaders, and participants of SPLC, agree to strive to Share Christ's Love with Joy through these loving behaviors. We will:
- Pray for each other and for ourselves to seek harmony. (James 5:26)
- Love one another. (1 John 4:7)
- Treat others with kindness and respect as we expect to be treated. (Matthew 7:12)
Join me as we take these behaviors to heart and live them out in our congregation!
In peace,
Pastor Sarah
