Rooted, Wrestling and Rising

September 23, 2018 by Rev. Debbie Clark

The play on words only makes sense if you’re familiar with the Good Friday tradition of preaching on “the seven last words […]

Sing with Joy

September 16, 2018 by Rev. Debbie Clark

Psalm 63:1-8; Matthew 13:44 “So what’s your concept?” Patrick had seen my puzzled look and came over to help. “I had an interesting conversation this week about joy,” I said, “and so I want to paint joy.

Dear friends, Last Tuesday, through our office window, I saw a van show up in the upper parking lot and some people going into the sanctuary carrying things. By the time I finished what I was doing and walked up the hill, it was gone. I went into the sanctuary and peeked behind the chancel […]
