Episode Synopsis

Dear Church Family, I give great thanks for this amazing community of faith and that I get to serve as one of your pastors. My heart truly overflows with gratitude. This Thanksgiving Weekend as your stomachs might still be full of turkey, mashed potatoes, and stuffing (my favorite "trinity" of the Thanksgiving feast), I look forward to stepping into the Advent season together and setting our hearts towards the manger. This year, our Advent/Christmas theme is "The Family Tree of Jesus: Our Story of Hope." Are you one of those people who is into family genealogies? Are you one of those people who always skips over the long list of names in biblical genealogies? This weekend we are going to look at some of those unexpected names in the family tree of Jesus. It is a reminder to all of us – no matter our quirks, our successes, our failures, our make-ups or moods – that WE are a part of God's story. So may you come to worship and know that YOU BELONG and that no matter what is going on in your life, we can lean into the peace that God is weaving together a masterful tapestry. In Gratitude for all of You, Pastor Chamie
