It is Sunday morning. I have, in my usual fashion, risen early--long before sunrise--to meditate, write, drink coffee, and prepare myself for worship.
I am grateful. I hope you are as well. And as I consider some of these points of gratitude, I am reminded of the following:
* Calvary's continued growth . . . our hospitality and outreach and welcome which brings new families to worship every weekend (sometimes dozens of new people). I am always amazed and inspired by the spirit, gifts, and ideas that new people are bringing to Calvary.
* Calvary's mission . . . our month of February will be a celebration of the many missions we support: some local, some state, some international. Make sure you not only visit the booths to see where God is working through us . . . but make plans to be involved in at least one mission in 2013!
* Calvary's children and teenagers . . . I don't need to say much here. Our kids rock!
* Calvary's generosity . . . in February Pastor Michelle will be offering the tithing challenge--a new approach for families that may be working toward offering a tithe (10% of income) to God's work. If you are still working toward the tithe, take advantage of this challenge and see how God will bless you!
* Calvary's families . . . lots of wonderful people here.
Yes, I'm grateful. And I look forward to seeing everyone in the mission station this Sunday!
