Stone Soup Plays in the Streets!
Thus says the Lord of hosts: Old men and old women shall again sit in the streets of Jerusalem, each with staff in hand because of their great age. And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in its streets. Thus says the Lord of hosts: Even though it seems impossible to the remnant of this people in these days, should it also seem impossible to me, says the Lord of hosts? Thus says the Lord of hosts: I will save my people from the east country and from the west country; and I will bring them to live in Jerusalem. They shall be my people and I will be their God, in faithfulness and in righteousness. Zechariah 8:4-8
In our time of worship, we will set out to grow in our love of our neighbors, our neighborhood and our God. We'll do this through the blessed discipline of neighborhood play. And for those feeling like they would rather sit down with their "staff", we'll have the benches on main street.
What are your thoughts on Zechariah 8 about God using a community for reconciliation and not just individuals?
So get your mad Man Hunt skills on, wear your best Kick the Can kilt and be ready to be captivated by Capture the Flag.
For dinner, we'll provide hot dogs and buns and you bring the salads and desserts to balance delicious with healthy!
See you at 4 p.m. at the Wesley Cottage at Saluda UMC.
