Senior Pastor, Rev. Peter Hey
Dear Ones,
I will not be preaching for the next two Sundays. Pastor Danielle will preach this coming Sunday (October 20), and Ginny and Denise will lead us in a celebration of Laity Sunday.
I uniquely appeal to our congregation's parents to come and listen to Pastor Danielle's sermon. Please appreciate this opportunity. Very few congregations have the blessing of a seminary-trained professional to be devoted to ministry with children and youth.
Danielle's education in biblical studies will give your children a good understanding of scripture. Take full advantage of this opportunity. Your children will be less likely to be led a stray by those who use holy scripture to affirm prejudice against women, immigrants, and members of the LGBTQ community. I am proud to have her in a position to influence our children in such a positive direction. I hope all of us will cherish our opportunities for such growth.
Grace and peace
Peter
