We are deep into summer now, and if the living isn't exactly easy, it is certainly quieter! Emails have slowed down to a trickle, and few of you are making your way into the church between Sundays. The heat and quiet often lull me into forgetting that Fall is on its way, and all the events and activities that crank into gear about the first of September. And so, I begin to think forward--August, September, October, officer elections, stewardship season, the startup of Logos, and before you know it, a new church year begins with Advent. If you stop by to see me and wonder why I don't know what day it is, I'm just living into the future.
Our future in the Presbyterian Church is "yeasty" right now. Lots of things have gone on and are continuing to stir. One of the most visible events in our denomination is the election of Bruce Reyes-Chow as the new Moderator of General Assembly. I hope you will take a look at him via video.
Stop in and see me sometime this summer. I'll be gone for a few weeks starting July 23, but I'll see you soon after.
