June 29 Reflection: Pastor Matthew
Dear brothers and sisters in Holy Covenant,
Have you recovered from Pride yet? From the glorious sun all along the route? From all the heart-felt “whoo-ing”? From the amazing music in worship? From your brunch or party? I hope you experienced the whole weekend as a celebration of the diversity of the family of God and that, heading into this week, you felt loved, because you are!
This Sunday, we will be welcoming Pastor Matthew Johnson, his spouse Emily, and their daughter Libby – at last! Please come, celebrate and sing, and pray for the life of this church as we enter the next chapter in our leadership. Your presence, in this time of transition, really is a gift to Pastor Matthew and his family, and to one another! If you’re in town this week, do join us at 10:30am or 7pm.
And put next Sunday, July 10th, on your calendar. We’re going to have a block party and cookout after the morning service to really welcome our new pastor, and to celebrate the good life that is Chicago in the summer in this beloved community.
With all love for you,
Rebecca
Minister of Spiritual Formation
