Psalm 100
A psalm. For giving grateful praise.
1 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Worship the Lord with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.
3 Know that the Lord is God.
It is he who made us, and we are his[a];
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
5 For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.
Keep Sunday Holy –Our church, along with other local churches is a part of the Keep Sunday Holy Team. We want to keep Sunday morning free of mandatory events like sporting practices or games. That way, we can choose church, if we feel it has an importance in our family. This effort was started as a result of a letter from a teenager about how her family has been torn up over the choice of church attendance versus other mandatory events outside of church. So far we have started conversations via letters to the Editor. We manned a tent at the West End Fair & Chestnuthill Community Day to share our feelings. We are also encouraging other churches to join in this effort. We consider this to be a non-confrontational, ecumenical bridge building service to strengthen families in their spiritual growth.
