What a wonderful Commitment Sunday we just had! It was a joy to see the people of Central filling the sanctuary, enjoying Christian fellowship, and committing themselves to the work of God through the church.
We pastors are blessed to be in ministry with you. We celebrate with you in times of joy and we shed tears with you in times of grief. In short, we have the great privilege to walk with people in their journeys through life. One of those blessings is to see people make God’s love real in their lives. We are blessed to serve with people who love God, love their church, and make that love real in action. That love is what overwhelmed me on Sunday. In a spirit of Christian love, a great many people did a great deal of work to make Commitment Sunday a success. In that same spirit of Christian love, people committed to the call to empower the work of Christ through the church. Thank you for your faithfulness. I am truly blessed to be with you in ministry.
