A MESSAGE FROM PASTOR RICHARD

 

​

“The glory that you have given me I have given them, so that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become completely one, so that the world may know that you have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.”

- John 17: 22-23

 

On Tuesday, Election Day, I was blessed to help lead an ecumenical worship service to pray for our country, pray for peace, and unite as one in Christ as we shared the Lord’s Supper together. Joining me was Pastor Sarah Clark of the United Methodist Church of Evergreen and Pastor Terry Schjang of Evergreen Lutheran Church.

At this service, we read the scripture above, when Jesus prays to God before he leaves his disciples and goes to his death. He prays that the disciples will be one as God and Jesus are one.

​

Now that the election results are in, some of us are disappointed and worried, some of us are joyous and excited, and some of us are indifferent. But our call to be one in Christ and do the ministry God calls us to do has not changed. This Sunday, even if we voted differently, we will still come to church and worship together as a community of faith knowing God is with us, we will still listen to the scripture that guides us every day, and we are still called to trust in the Spirit that works through us and all around us to bring God’s light to the Evergreen community and beyond.

​

The “Prayer of Saint Francis,” which I read as the benediction on Tuesday, is one of my favorite prayers. To me, it gets to the heart of our call as Christians to unite and show Christ to this community and world. Hopefully it will speak to you this week, too.

 

“Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,

Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, joy.

O divine master grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; To be loved as to love For it is in giving that we receive- it is in pardoning that we are pardoned.

And it’s in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen”

 

May the Peace of Christ be with you,

​

Pastor Richard

We are a Supporting Congregation of the Alternative Gift Fair again this year, with volunteers and with shopping! The theme of "Shop Once, Gift Twice "expresses the purpose of AGF which is to support local, national and international charities by giving them a market to sell arts and crafts and keep 100% of the proceeds. When you buy a gift at AGF,  you are also giving to the charity. Find unique, handcrafted treasures while making a meaningful impact. 

​

​

“Love in Action” is the Church of the Hills mission team.  The primary goal of the Love in Action Team is to serve the needs of others locally, nationally and internationally. The people of Church of the Hills are blessed with unique gifts; although the size of our congregation is smaller, sharing these gifts remains a vital part of our outreach ministry.

The “Love in Action” Committee will guide us to be Christ’s faithful Witnesses. As such, we will share a deep life of service, and participate in God’s mission to care for the needs of the sick, the poor, and the lonely to establish Christ’s just, loving, and peaceable rule in the world.
