Greetings!

 

I want to challenge you today to get out  
of your comfort zone. You have so much  
incredible potential on the inside. God  
has put gifts and talents in you that you  
probably don't know anything about. 
                                            ~ Joel Osteen

This service celebrates our community and the talents within. To accurately describe
with words past 'Sharing Our Talents' services is very difficult because the energy in the room is always amazingly magical in which words cannot capture.  Come see how you would describe this day.  Is is always a service to remember.

Wags and Worship:  A Celebration of All BeingsWa

LATE SERVICE 
School Sunday Format 
  
"From Shattered Dreams to Reasonable Hope:  The Intersection of Losses and the Future Story" 
with guest speaker Ted Bowman  

 

Ted proposed for us to look at grief from a different perspective. Look beyond the big event into what lies underneath, the reality of shattered dreams. What does this mean for the person grieving? How can one best support? Are you able to sit on the grief bench along side rather than stand "over there"? Listen to this message to better understand the grief in your life and to gain perspective how to support the grief of another.  Click here.

"Love That Moves the Stars"
with Rev. Ron Moor

Click here to listen.
 

The message Ron shared:  When I open to love and "marry" myself, I accept my opposites and bring them to compliment. As I engage this union with myself in my daily interactions with others and this materialistic world, my love becomes most potent.  Believing and acting in the knowing I am to be honored and I am sacred, my love can best change the world.  Being aware that my words to others and myself are food. What am I feeding myself and those around me?  I am reminded that using intentional language/communication is vital.    

 

Thank you for your understanding.  I appreciate your waiting.  Sincerely, Shannon
