October Newsletter 2021 Autumn is here, and the holiday season isn't far behind! "For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven." Ecclesiastes 3:1 Autumn is a season of change. The green of summer turns to a palette of vivid scarlet, gold, and soil-colored hues that carpet the earth. The air becomes more crisp and the temperatures cooler. The autumn is our garland, the grand finale of another year of life. It is the time of seeds bequeathed to the soil, of that which takes flight from branch to earth to become new earth itself. It is the gift of the old to the new birth that will come again in the spring. Autumn is the season in which we offer thanks with grateful hearts for God's bountiful favor in our lives, for the warmth of hearth and home, and for the joy of love and laughter with family and friends. The Good Lord has blessed us to be a blessing to others. Sharing shows that you care. Caring means you are willing to put the needs of others first. As we approach the season of holiday giving, we invite you to reflect on God's faithfulness and prayerfully discern what you can offer to those in need out of the abundant goodness in your life. In this season, we give thanks for your generosity of time, talents, and treasures in our journey together to serve those who are calling out for help, for we could not do what we do without each and every one of you. Thank you! |
