God Sightings and More for 10/18

What are you doing to make this time different for worship? And/or describe when you saw God this week.

Pastor Brett – Next to me I have this little book stand and on it I have placed a glossy image of Jesus holding scripture with wood backing. This is a gift I got from one of my college friends after I was in his wedding. I am having this in front of me to distinguish this space this morning as a worship space not like a work space. I also have this candle which I am going to light. Take a moment and grab something to make your space different for worship.

Martha – Usually, when the weather was nice during the summer I would watch the service outside. Usually, I do my meetings inside the guest bedroom which I call the Woman Cave… I told Ken to go to the Woman Cave today so I could sit outside by our gas fireplace.

Sally – Nothing different…I get here and I get online and that’s my victory….I also have my coffee and my cookie.

Kari – My God Sighting is that we had a really great Church Council Meeting yesterday. We had really great conversations; we were able to agree and disagree & respect each other. I thought that was a good representation; that it would be nice if we could spread that out to others in our community and world.

I clearly have a way different work situation than a home situation. So, this is fantastic – I don’t have to wear a mask, I can sit on this soft chair and I can have a beverage right by me; it’s all good.

Michele – I was thinking that a really neat way to prepare for service is to talk to Martha - she mentioned yesterday about a prayer shawl. That would be really neat to make a prayer shawl to wear on Sundays in preparation for our service.  (Bonnie – I have many simple prayer shawl patterns)

Mark – Lit a candle.
