Pastor's Letter - January 2, 2015

Dear Friends,

Happy New Year! To me a new year is like a pad of paper with 365 blank pages, each waiting to be written or drawn on. It is bursting with potential and possibilities. This Sunday we will begin the series: Off to a Great Start, where we reflect on the possibilities for this new year.
What do we want this year to look like?

Are there some things that we want to leave behind in 2014? Are there new things that we want to include in this coming year? Like cleaning out a cluttered closet, there are things we want to get rid of, others we want to keep, and still others we might keep, but plan to renovate or repurpose. And, in sorting through the closet of this past year, are we allowing God to guide us?

Imagine what this new year could look like if we aligned our hopes and dreams for this year with what our creative God, who has an infinite imagination, dreams for our life?

I look forward to worshiping with you this Sunday. Please continue to pray for the mission of Buckhall United Methodist Church: To make disciples of Jesus Christ.

Yours in Christ,
Linda
