There are many things we miss, but one I've heard several people say is music. Psalms 100 says "Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth." The psalms are made to do just that. If you are missing music, why not do a little jammin' with the psalms this week. Once songs, these are often set to music and even without melody, may fulfill your hunger for poetic words. Try reading them aloud. They are a wonderful way to talk to God.

Here are a few to get started with:

When you want to express joy to God: Psalms 8, Psalm 100, Psalm 138, Psalm 150

When you need help: Psalm 18, Psalm 23, Psalm 25, Psalm 91

When you need to feel closer to God: Psalm 42, Psalm 121, Psalm 139

A special Halloween event is planned for 1:00 - 2:30 on Saturday, October 31. Don't miss it. Details are still being worked on, but it includes costumes, crafts, and a treat and will be outside. More information to come. We look forward to seeing you on Halloween!

We need you to update your forms that we usually complete in the summer or fall. We have changed them to make them more convenient for you. You now only need one form per family. All children can be included on that form. Even though we are not meeting apart from parents at this point, we do need you fill them out for two reasons:

Please fill out the form, which you can do online, and email them to Amanda Rau at arau@boxp.net.
