Dear Friends,
Most of you have heard that our dear friend, Gretchen Frueh, died on the last
day of 2011. "She lived with lung cancer for over four years with
a deep faith, dignity, grace, and unconditional love." A
memorial service, officiated by Peace, will be held at 2:00 pm Saturday,
Jan. 28 at the First Presbyterian Church, 2050 Oak Street Sarasota,
FL. A reception, hosted by PEO will follow at the church.
This Sunday at Peace we will look at the early “defining moments” of Jesus’
life – his presentation in the temple as an infant, his temple visit at
age twelve, and his adult baptism by John. These
are scriptures for Epiphany and Baptism Sundays.
Speaking of Epiphany, you are invited to the Deiberts’ for a very casual
Epiphany party tonight – lots of candlelight and friendship – no agenda, no
stress. Come to 6421 Blue Grosbeak Circle 34202 (Greenbrook
Run 756-8153) If you have leftover finger foods, bring
them, If not, just stop by anytime between 7 and 10.
May the Light of Christ burn brightly in our souls!
Elizabeth
