Rev. Harbison
This is just a short note to thank you for your wonderful generosity. Your pastor appreciation gift touched Debbie and I so much and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

As you know, stewardship is coming up and you're going to hear us as a congregation talk a lot about money. We are also however, going to talk about our relationship with God and each other. How our focus on God directs our giving and how our relationship together calls us to commit more. I look forward to these conversations in the coming month.

Again, let me thank you for your generosity. I am truly humbled and blessed to be your pastor

Have a blessed week,

Youth Rally on Sunday! 
 

The Youth Rally on Sunday was great!  Mission was the focus of the day along with worship, great food and fellowship. The theme was "Tearing down old walls and building a new faith through Christ". Cassie, Ellis, Catherine, Lilly, and Dorothea are pictured here in the sanctuary at Spring Branch Presbyterian where the rally took place.

A Closing Prayer    

 

God of unchangeable power,
when you fashioned the world
the morning stars sang together
and the host of heaven shouted for joy.
Open our eyes to the wonders of creation
and teach us to use all things for good,
to the honor of your glorious name;
through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, forever and ever. Amen.
