It is springtime, and signs of hope and new life are all around us. Flowers are blooming, birds are singing, sunshine and rain showers renew the earth. Spring adds new life and beauty to everything around us.... A sure sign that no matter what we are going through, God is in control. As the lyrics in the song "Redeemer" say; "All of Creation testifies, this life within me cries, I know my Redeemer lives!" I was very blessed Sunday to sing this song with Ed, Jayné, Erin, Mike, and Donna. Thanks to all of these folks who continue to work together to stream the weekly services online, and a special thanks to Jeremy who in addition to everything else he does has also worked hard on the technical aspects of streaming the service.

     I know all of us are longing for the time when we can once again meet and worship together in person. Until then, remember that although we don't know what the future holds, we do know who holds the future. We will persevere through this storm and come out stronger than ever on the other side. Everything will be ok. May God bless us all!
