SERMON SNAPSHOT: Sunday, May 31, 2020
Dear Friends in Christ –
This weekend is most often one of celebration for many people and many reasons.
The Jewish community celebrates the festival of the harvest – Pentecost – fifty days after Passover.
The Christian community celebrates the wholescale appearance of God’s Spirit.
Across the nation school is out and camp is in.
Here in Charleston, the Spoleto Festival is in full swing and
"Seconds Please" Tea Room has just wrapped up! But this year is different…
A deadly virus has invaded our world, has disrupted our lives. Our work, our relationships, our leisure, our worship has all changed… and will never be the same. I cannot imagine that these times are random.
2,000 years ago at a particular moment in time, the Spirit swept in and transformed the world. Theologian/Journalist, Phylis Tickle (yes, Tickle) posits that every 500 years since Jesus walked the earth the church has undergone massive transformation. It’s been 500 years since Martin Luther nailed his theses to the church door at Wittenberg.
Tune in!
In anticipation and excitement for the Spirit’s leading –

CHURCH-WIDE TAG SALE
The church is going to have a tag sale in mid-August, so now is a good time- you might even say a great time- to purge, clean out, get rid of, or to just empty out some of the things around your house and yard. If you have a storage unit you haven’t visited in a while, now might be the time to clean it out too. You can start getting your stuff together and we'll let you know when collection begins. Clean out those closets, basements, attics, and garages. We will need lots of volunteers when the time comes but more info will be coming soon. Any questions please contact Dawn McCready by email or at 203-921-7819.
