Grace and Peace to you! How are you doing? Its been so heartwarming to see many of you in church as we gather again in person. If you haven't been back to church on a Sunday yet, perhaps you'll come for our first concert of the season this Sunday at 2:30 with Jake Armerding.
This week I visited a woman who is 99 years old. I asked her, "How's your prayer life going?" She said: "pretty good. Every day, I sit here in my chair and think about all the good things that have happened to me in my life because of church. Then, I thank God."
Wow! Have you ever tried this? What good things have happened to you because of church? How about if you and I sit with this question this week? See what comes to mind. Share with a church friend, or give me a call. I'd love to hear your thoughts.
The painting above is from the beloved, late church member and artist, Yvonne Gillis, one of our many saints of our ancestry.

SEASON 10 BEGINS:
What a year this has been! We're ready to roar back with a spectacular opening to Season 10 of Music at Sanctuary Hall at 2:30 p. m. on Sunday, Oct. 24.
We'll begin Season 10 as we began Season One in 2011: With international singer-songwriter Jake Armerding, who continues to earn praise for his multi-instrumental, multi-genre style of beautiful melodies and smart lyrics that has been captivating audiences for decades.
Jake will be joined by the blitzkrieg banjo playing of Greg Liszt. Together they have performed at such storied venues as Passim in Cambridge and the Rose Garden in Mansfield.
The afternoon will include a tribute to those we have lost. Get your tickets here!
Victor DeRubeis, Music Director
