Our circle thinks about many things. We talk about many things. We often need to set an alarm to make sure we stop talking and go home.
As a congregation we participated in different ways in the most recent CEM conference: some attended in person, more watched on YouTube or Zoom. On Sunday we gathered for a potluck brunch at Sharon and Daniel’s Elora home. The food was wonderful and plentiful. The conversation around the table ranged far and wide as we discussed the conference and our own future as a forming and evolving group. We worshipped together watching Beyond the Walls. (we’re grateful for this ministry and we especially appreciate the BTW choir,)
The world has shifted since that conversation but one thing has Not changed. There are many. many vulnerable people in our neighbourhoods. We never gather without talking about them and about how we can help them.
Our mission projects are so important to us. Our support for the food insecure, for refugee families, for needy children and their fearful or struggling parents will continue. Just now we’re focusing on Adopt a Family as a way to help families celebrate Christmas. But this is just one small thing in the grand scheme of caring for the most vulnerable among us. Our conversation will continue.
We urge all who have been blessed to bless others. It’s the least we can do.
