... from the Pastor WELCOME I’m glad you found us. Go look up John 1: 35-39. That’s the passage where two future disciples encounter Jesus. They ask Jesus where he is staying, what he is teaching. Jesus replies, Come and see. Jesus’ invitation to travel with him and to get to know him is the invitation you will come to know through our mission and witness.
Come and see how the Lord is shaping and forming our life with his joy.
Come and see how the Lord is teaching us to be his disciples, how the Lord is placing a servant’s heart into each one of us.
Come and see how the Lord is transforming the heart of the world through our stewardship of time, talent and treasure.
Yes, come and see, and hopefully you will learn why the Lord is worthy of your time and your attention.
Our invitation to worship and serve with us isn’t because the preaching is all that great because at times it isn’t great; it isn’t because our choir is known for its big celestial sound because at times some choir members don’t show up to sing; it isn’t because we are a friendly church because we have our “days”; it isn’t because our Church School classes will turn you into a Bible scholar or your kids into saints because our teachers sometimes have to “wing-it”; and it isn’t because our facilities are big, roomy and expansive because right now we are squeezed for space.
Come and see not us but the Lord who is with us, the one who is beside us, and above us, and ahead of us, and beneath us, and behind us. Come and see what the Lord is doing and how the Lord is calling us to be the people of God.
That is the only reason we hope you will respond to our invitation to join with us in the mission and witness to which our risen and reigning Lord has called us.
So, then, come and see. Be prepared to have your life changed, renewed, inspired, and even brought back from the dead.
Faithfully,
Augustus E. Succop III, Pastor
