This Sunday, June 3, we will begin our exploration of the question “What does it mean to be a people of blessing?” with a message from our minister titled “The Wider View” - we hope you will join us!
So what, then, does it mean to offer a blessing, to be a blessing? To bless something or someone
is to invoke its wholeness, to help remind the person or thing you are blessing of its essence,
its sacredness, its beauty, and to help remind yourself of that, too. Blessing does not fix anything.
It is not a cure… It does not instill health or well-being or strength. Instead, it reminds us that
those things are already there, within us. ~ Elea Kemler
