Day #1441

December 11, 2017

As we near the end of a year of weekly reminders of who Jesus is, today’s descriptor is Community. Community does seem to be important to Jesus - he healed those who were ostracized from the community so they could be restored to it; he enjoyed meals and teaching with community; and his teaching often focused on things that would strengthen community - forgive others, etc. 

So on this day of thinking of Jesus as community, it was good to come together as community to help wrap Christmas presents for graduates of Family Promise. Some 70+ gifts were wrapped in short order by many of the confirmation students and their families. And, bonus, it counts as a “service project.” A win/win, for certain. 

Blessings.
