Summer entails change, transition, and travel. Antonin, our new youth director, has fashioned a novel, amazing summer youth program. In mid-August Antonin will leave briefly for his U.K. wedding. This Sunday Union welcomes our newest staff member, Hunter Purvis, to assist Antonin. Lee-Ann, who served so faithfully for three and half years, said farewell last Sunday and returns to Africa with Freddy this week. Hundreds of Union members visit family on six continents during the summer school recess. Beyond our community, we are angered, disheartened, or confused by violence in Turkey, Kashmir, the U.S., France, Mali, etc. Amidst change, we take refuge in the promise 'I am the Lord, and I do not change' (Malachi 3:6). Elaborating this universal, spiritual constant, God said through Jeremiah 'I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love' (31:3). May God's unchanging love guide and ground us in all times, places, and seasons. Pastor Matthew |
