Exodus 34:  The Lord, the Lord, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger and rich in kindness and fidelity.

2 Corinthians 13:  Mend your ways, encourage one another, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

John 3:  God so loved the world that he gave his only Son,, so that everyone who believes in him might not  perish but might have eternal life.

The Kiss of Peace

 

 

 

Rosemary's Blessing:

 

O God, we thank you for the fact that you have inspired men and women in all nations and in all cultures. We call you different names: some call you Allah; some call you Elohim; some call you Jehovah; some call you Brahma; some call you the Unmoved Mover.  But we know that these are all names for one and the same God.

Grant that we will follow you and become so committed to your way and your kingdom that we will be able to establish in our lives and in this world a brother and sisterhood, that we will be able to establish here a kingdom of understanding, where men and women will live together as brothers and sisters and respect the dignity and worth of every human being.

In the name and spirit of Jesus. Amen.

  • A Special Christmas Notice

    Christmas 2
    The holidays are upon us.  To celebrate Christmas we would like to offer some opportunities for you to share your joy, gifts and blessings.

     

    Following are some ideas of how you can help that we would like to pass on to you.

     

    Soul’s Harbor. As in years past we are collecting sweatshirts and hoodies for the guys at Soul’s Harbor. Please drop them off at Lynda Fleming’s house by 12/17/20.  (5 Vista Cliff Place, Richardson, TX 75080).

     

    We will have opportunities to share the Christmas spirit but I have not as yet coordinated this with Becky.  So information will follow.

     

    Lynda Fleming is involved with a company called Caring Transitions which helps coordinate a Senior Holiday Wish Program. After reviewing the details below, please send an email to fleming23@gmail.comif you are interested in helping out.    Most seniors need items that range from $25-50, but if you can cover the cost of a larger item, please let Lynda know  your budget. Gifts MUST be collected by Tuesday, December 2ndso please reach out by Tuesday, November 24th.  Please bring all gifts to Lynda’s house (5 Vista Cliff Place, Richardson, TX 75080).                                                                              

    In addition to the above need, here are two more opportunities: 

    Collin County Meals on Wheels – desperately in need of meal supplement drinks such as Boost, Ensure Glucerna, Equate or Kirkland brand.   

    Pajamas for Seniors – another desperate need in our community is pajamas size XL- 7X.                             

    The deadline for this is also Tuesday, December 2nd.

     

    *** Lynda will have a bin on the front porch for contactless drop off.

    Isaiah 8:  The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; upon those who dwelt in the land of gloom a light has shown.

    Corinthians 1:  Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with the wisdom of human eloquence, so that the cross of Christ might not be emptied of its meaning.

    Matthew 4:  …Galilee of the Gentiles, the people who sit in darkness have seen a great light, on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by death light has risen.

    Rosemary's Blessing: 

     

    Oh God of humor enable us to laugh at your mischievous plans. 

    Life can become serious during these cold winter months, and our hearts can become heavy and burdened with responsibilities, decisions and trying to keep everyone happy. 

    Let us look for the funny things that happen, the unexpected surprise that catches us off-guard, along with the incongruences that we encounter. 

    Smile, snicker, giggle, give a belly laugh, and spontaneously guffaw. 

    You will be amazed at how God works through laughter.
