Sleet and snow keep up home last Sunday so it’s been 2 weeks since the good folk at Pine Island Presbyterian Church have been together. Although I’ve only been worshipping there for 2 1/2 months I feel strongly connected with the community and the care and support they offer. Yesterday was no exception.
Throughout the service [...]

This is a precarious, deep and mysterious dance
to which You extend an invitation.
A dance whose partners
are hope and surrender;
Partners who appear awkward
and clumsy around each ther,
Moving to their own internal rhythm
and each having two left feet
while stepping on the other’s toes.
Hope wants to be the lead partner,

I began with a piece of paper 8″ by 10″ and quickly realized that it wasn’t nearly big enough. I went to the garage and cut off a piece 4′ by 5′. It was bigger than the desk I was working on but I knew I needed something that big.

Prompted by the gifts of the Wise Ones, I thought about our gifts. Sometimes extravagant gifts are the order of the [...]

“What are you aching for this year?” Jen asks in her blog, JenLemen. I pondered her question as I wandered around my house in my mind and came up with a few ideas. But it was at worship this morning that I saw, vividly, part of my answer.
I’ve been worshipping with the Pine Island Presbyterian Church, a community of [...]
