The Creature and the Cross

THE CREATURE AND THE CROSS
This coming weekend we will observe a festival day that has been observed for centuries. Since perhaps the early Fourth Century, the Church has observed
Holy Cross Day.
The cross is important because Christ hangs upon it… The cross is the lens through which we “live, move, and have our being.” It is right to honor who dies there, who overcame it, and what God did upon that lonely tree.

Thanksgiving Dinner? Take the Survey
|
|
|
We know it is a long way to Thanksgiving Day, but we'd like to know if you have plans.
We're wondering if we had a Thanksgiving Dinner at the church (and we'd find a way to make sure football was on and games were available), would you like to come? The plan is still developing, but we just need to know if we had a dinner, would anyone come!
