Hello Faith’ers. Jon Oney here. What happen to the nice weather? I am sitting in my office looking out at the cold rainy day on this Wednesday afternoon thinking about turning on the heat! I don’t know if you noticed, but we had a day with a high of 95 yesterday and today we are sitting at 59. What is up with that?
Ok. Enough of me complaining. We had a spectacular weekend last week at the Fire Muster as we saw many different people from many different faith backgrounds come together in praise and worship before God. Speaking of things coming together, this weekend we start our fall kick off series called Come Together. You might even hear a Beetle’s tune.
I think the Beatles had it right—some things are just made to come together. …Cookies and milk, peanut butter and jelly, the Vikings and a new stadium…well I guess we will see on that last one. More importantly, have you ever considered what or whom God intends to come together? Join us this Sunday as we start a journey through the book of Ephesians and explore what God asks to come together.
One more thing…We still need people for the worship team. So if you are interested, please send me an email at [email protected].
Can’t wait to see how God is going to move this weekend!
