Service to our community

[Sentinel Watch, Anita Byth, “When ‘church service’ means a church that serves the community,” JSH-Online.com, November 16, 2020]

Thank you to Anita for this inspiring podcast. It reminded me that church is not about numbers, but about service to our community, and that we can rely on God to help us show our communities that Truth and Love are available for everyone. Loved it.

Can all pray

[Judith Hardy Olson, “Be a first responder,” Sentinel, November 16, 2020]

Thank you so much to Judy for this inspiring article, which is so helpful and appropriate right now.

We can’t all be police or firefighters, but we can all pray with a powerful “God thought.” What a wonderful example the author gave us of the efficacy of her grandmother’s prayerful response to an accident that could have had a fatal result. I, too, have taught my grandchildren to pray whenever they hear a siren, by knowing that God is already there, in control, and taking care of all needs. So grateful for this excellent example.
