Thank
you to our Outreach Commission for making it possible for St. Philip's to welcome
Sara Miles the first weekend of Lent. We have heard from many parishioners who
were very inspired by Sara's talks and preaching. During
her time with us, Sara invited each of us into deep reflection about our faith
and how each of us is called to respond the needs of a hurting world. Her message
spoke to the heart of what it means to join in ministry. Sara spoke to the deeper
inspiration and motivation of this vital part of our Christian mission. Sara's
talks and sharing have tilled the soil, opening many hearts to listen for how
God is calling each of us to new places in faith and service. | | "Jesus
is real, and so, praise God, are we. Everything Jesus does on earth is through
our bodies." 
"I
came late to Christianity, and discovered the inconvenient truth that a spiritual
life is a physical life..." |
The
days and weeks ahead hold promise for continuing to open conversations with our
members as we each discern our response to God. We each might consider remembering
the people who we don't usually imagine as active in a ministry that inspires
us, especially people who attended Sara's workshop or heard her preach, and invite
them to join you in a ministry that stirs your faith and passion. The generous
support of Outreach Commission Yes to the Future funds made this meaningful weekend
possible. |
