This Week at Worship
It's another beautiful day in the neighbourhood. Nature is alive with songbirds and new and beautiful life in our gardens and in the fields. If there were any hills around, I dare say I would go outside and sing "the hills are alive with the sound of music." Happily for all, there are no hills so no one needs to hear me sing. I do hope you are able to get outside for a bit to give thanks for the beauty of God's good creation this day.
This Sunday we are invited to gather together via Zoom (see the email invite that was sent on Thursday morning) for a time of worship with the Sacrament of Holy Communion. I am looking forward to seeing many of you join in on-line as this is my last Sunday with you until early September. It's been a long, long time since we've seen one another and will be great to see your happy, smiling face. If you've never used Zoom before, no worries. It's pretty easy once you're in. You have to make sure your speakers are turned on as well as mic and webcam (if you have those). If anyone wants to have a trial run, let me know. I could set something up for Saturday afternoon if people are interested. By the way, while I've used Zoom for board meetings, I've never used it for worship. I too am nervous but trust it will all be good.

May God bless you and keep you.
