Dear Friends,
In this Sunday’s reading from Luke, Jesus is stressed out and angry. Knowing what you do about Jesus, what do you think would upset him? What would bother him so much that he would lose his temper? How about you? What really gets you hopping mad? Is there room on our spiritual journey for anger? If so, how might we express it faithfully?
See you on Sunday!
Pete

GREEN TIP FOR THE WEEK -
SIMPLE THINGS TO DO TO PROTECT THE EARTH
PAPER NOR PLASTIC
Bring your own reusable bags with you when you shop. The average American uses 350 bags each year according to the World Wildlife Fund. When you reuse a bag we can reduce needless deaths of marine life. Many plastic bags end up in the oceans and streams. Single-use paper shopping bags require the cutting of trees and CAN be reused if you forget to take your multi-use bags. And what with all the wildfires we are experiencing these days, we need all the trees we can keep.

“USE WISELY...” HELP US CARE FOR OUR FRAGILE ENVIRONMENT BY REDUCING WASTE.
REDUCE - REFUSE - REUSE - - REPAIR - RECYCLE - ROT (COMPOST)
