Take a Moment Prayer: Week of April 21

Look for this prayer each week. Take time to pray it each day and know that your church family is saying this prayer too.

Gentle Shepherd, each day I listen for your voice and seek your presence for the reassurance of your love and for guidance through my day. I know that I can count on you to help me be the person that you created me to be. You have shown me your faithfulness over and over again. When I wander off the narrow path, you patiently protect me and call me back to you. I remember and pray for those who are suffering. Come to them, Gentle Shepherd, with your care and provide healing and comfort. I pray for those who do not know you as their Gentle Shepherd. Just as others have cared for me and led me to know you; show me how to care for and share the Good News with others who cross my path in need of finding you. With faith, I will seek to follow you today and everyday. Amen.

The Pastor's Pen - January 2024

We should come away from Christmas reminded that Jesus came into this world so that things could be different. He did not come so that we could have a holiday including time off from work or school, presents, cookies, lots of other food and time with friends and family. The story of Jesus does not end at the stable. Jesus grows up and becomes our teacher and example for how God calls us to live.
