First Features
Each Month we mail a
Church Newsletter entitled "First Features" to all members
of the church. It has been a tradition for many years
that the Pastors have expressed their laments, hopes,
guidance, well wishes, and prayers in a cover letter. Some
of us save these letters, and some of us displace them.
It is hoped that those who displace theirs we will be able
to find it here on the web at.

the Spirit
The Spirit
comes, a gift from our
Heavenly Fatherand Jesus, our
brother.
The Spirit
comes to be Holy
Presence with us in all places,
all times, all relationships, all challenges,
all blessings.
Company in our
loneliness, Comfort in our
pain, Consolation in
our sorrow, Counsel for our
confusion, Completion of
our incompleteness –
God lovingly
present with us, in us, between
us, and through us.
Like a fountain
of living water welling up
inside and overflowing
us.
The Spirit
comes, a gift from our
Heavenly Father and Jesus, our
brother.
Breathing into
us, It fans a fire
in our bones.
Compassion
Conviction
Commitment
Courage
Calling that
claims us and all the
best we have to offer and all the
days we have to live.
Rejoice in the
Spirit.
Co-operate with
the Spirit.
It is
everlasting life alive in you, alive in me, seeking a
sanctuary in every human soul.
