I am smitten by the beauty of First Presby. Church's sanctuary during both Advent and Christmas. The large Christmas tree, the simple wreath for Advent, the Christmas wreaths and garlands, poinsettias, the fantastic banners by Karen Hanny and Peggy Stocks, along with Christmas greens throughout the rest of the sanctuary, all "worked" in our sanctuary of worship. Thank you to ALL who participated in planning and putting up this marvelous display of craftspersonship, and for ALL those who are taking it down as I write this.
There are many in this world who do not have a place for holy worship like we do. There are Christians who meet under trees for worship in Africa and South America, others who gather in school buildings, prison cafeterias, and others who meet in store front churches. What make all of these places holy sanctuaries are the people who gather in God's name. It all goes back to the words of Jesus, "Wherever two or three gather in my name, Lo, I am there."
Come let us adore him in sanctuaries of rare beauty like ours, under trees, under tin roofs, and in the wide open spaces of Godly splendor!
Peace,
Pastor Brett
