May 2016- Ministerial Resident Diana McLean's Reflections

Our May worship theme is Blessing. We'll approach this theme through a variety of lenses, as we do with each monthly theme. I invite all of us to also consider who has been a blessing in our lives--whether others in our church community or from other parts of our lives. If the person is still alive and you are still in touch with them, maybe you will find a way to tell them this month how they have blessed you and changed your life for the better.
 
This month we are wrapping up our Holy Listening process with Rev. Jeanelyse Doran Adams, who will be with us on Saturday, May 21st, to celebrate the process with our Cottage Meetings and the wonderful sharing that happened in those. The end of this process will bring with it some sense of where we are headed next year. I hope as many of you as possible will participate on the 21st--there's a sign-up sheet in the foyer where you can register.
 
Last but not least, thanks to all of you for the ways you bless this congregation and the wider community!
 
In gratitude,
Diana
