Pentecost

What a joyful community we are when we find unity in Christ’s Spirit while we celebrate our diversity of interests and gifts!    It is Pentecost this Sunday, the 50th day after Easter morn, when we celebrate with red clothes, red ribbon prayers, and red flowers, the fiery presence of God’s Spirit in our midst!

We will hear from Russ Kerr about his call to service as a Young Adult Volunteer in Mission.   Please give generously to the Pentecost Offering which supports his call, as well as other ministry with young, young adults, and at-risk children.

We will commission Matthew Grantham for his service as a Young Adult Advisory Delegate to the General Assembly, the national, biennial meeting of the Presbyterian Church (USA).   Matt is the one YAAD with six adults (3 ministers and 3 elders) serving from Peace River Presbytery.

We will complete our 2014 Sharing the Vision time by inviting you to attend the goal of your choice to refine and prioritize the ideas for that goal at 9:45.   Thanks to all who have led these classes and to Grant Lowe for orchestrating this process.
The bells will ring at 8:30, and the choir will sing at 11:00.   We will say “thanks” to all who have taught classes this year, nurturing the discipleship of children, youth, and adults at Peace. 

Bulletin pages attached.   Missing from calendar is the thank-you luncheon on Saturday, the 14th for the devoted Fellowship Team members.  
What a great God, what a great congregation, what great gifts!   Varieties of gifts given for the common good.  

Pentecostal peace to you,
Elizabeth
