Scripture

Mark 4: 35-41 

35 On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” 36 And leaving the crowd behind, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. Other boats were with him. 37 A great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already being swamped. 38 But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” 39 He woke up and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” Then the wind ceased, and there was a dead calm. 40 He said to them, “Why are you afraid? Have you still no faith?” 41 And they were filled with great awe and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”

Welcome Rev. Blair Moffett
 
The Rev. Blair Moffett will continue in July the bridge ministry ably offered by Dave VanArsdale in May and June. Blair’s history with FCCW goes back to the 1950s when he attended worship on summer Sundays with his family. Later, Blair was a regular on the summer supply list when pastors went on vacation. Since retiring to Wolfeboro in 2007, Blair and Patricia have
worshipped regularly at FCCW and valued the warmth of its fellowship. For July, Blair’s sermons will explore the Christian vocation (“calling”) that comes to every believer with baptism. He hopes to have our beautiful pulpit warmed up and ready to go for our new Interim Pastor, the Rev. Donna Muise, on August 1.
