This Sunday, we will be recognizing our long term members – those people who have brought our congregation from the past to the present and deserve our gratitude. If we have faith in the future, how should we live now? What should we build so that five, ten, or twenty five years from now, this congregation will still exist, not as it is today, but as it needs to be to continue to foster love, connection, spiritual growth, and compassionate care for one another as a community and as part of a larger world?  Let’s look back with gratitude, and look forward – with faith in ourselves in the present moment.
