Pics: The Fifth With First

What a great Sunday!

January 31, 2016 marked our first edition of "The Fifth With First" of the new year, and we did some amazing things!

In our Worship Service in the Sanctuary we presented a video homily lovingly put together by the good folks at the Salt Project featuring our dear friend the Rev. David Shirey. The video is a part of the "Ministry Still Matters" campaign of the wider church and with a short introduction by Rev. Brian powerfully points to the ways that we can be burnt out or revitalized in living our faith. Click below to watch that worship video.

After the Worship Service in the sanctuary we had a Plarn Project in the Fellowship Hall. We owe a big "Thank You!" to the dozen folks who participated in preparing "plastic yarn" that will be knitted into bed mats for local homeless men and women.

At the same time that morning we had forty folks from our congregation out in the community making a difference in our local neighborhood. We started with a brief prayer service at Chaparral Park and then moved on to the Paiute Neighborhood Center where we revitalized their community garden, painted the benches in the children's amphitheater, and did some general maintenance and beautification projects all around the center.
