The Practice of Finding and Being Found

"The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field..." Matthew 13:44


This week we'll meet at Saluda UMC at 4 p.m. and go  hunting gems in downtown at the Saluda Gem Mine Wicks and Wares. Group rate is $8 but we'll cover half that, so just bring $4 per person who wants to hunt gems. This should be a great lesson and lots of fun for the younger kids!
Frances is bringing lasagna for dinner afterwards so everybody else can bring whatever would make a lasagna dinner complete.
So be thinking about what it is in life that we dedicate ourselves to finding. Are we looking for the truly valuable things (material and spiritual)? Are we willing to pay the price for those truly valuable things?

"The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which someone found and hid; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field."
