We are all created in Gods image, and God has brought us all
together.
We come from east, west, north, and south.

We bring art and poetry,
music and dance, food and culture.
Indeed, in you, the Spirit of God is alive and vibrant. For in the

It was all good. Everything God created was good.

[If you have prayer concerns or celebrations please pass those cards to the

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.
When I feel afraid, think Ive lost my way, still youre there right beside me,
