This Sunday, the Rev. Darrell Pierce, retired minister of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) will be preaching. His sermon, based on 1 Peter 5:6-11, is entitled "Humble Exaltation." I wish I could hear it.
Instead, after Wiggle Time, I will head downstairs to spend the worship time with our younger people. I've been looking forward to joining them for a while.
After worship, there will be a festive Mothers Luncheon, to which everyone is invited. If you are a mother, have a mother, have ever seen a mother, you should plan to stay. (And if you're cantankerous and insist you don't fall under any of those categories, you should plan to stay anyway.)
Also, there are several worthy fundraising events on Sunday. In addition to our on-going Relay for Life preparations, there are a few others. The Fairmont Council of Churches is sponsoring its annual CROP Walk (which raises money for anti-hunger projects through Church World Service); if you want to donate, you can give me money on Sunday. The Boy Scouts are hosting an OX-Roast at Camp Mountaineer -- those who have been before tell me this is an event not to be missed. And, as mentioned on the blog earlier this week, we will be collecting our Special Pentecost Offering (for New Church Ministry) this Sunday and next.
