Thanksgiving Worship with Casa
de Fe
Praise the Lord! I will give
thanks to the Lord
with my whole heart, in the company of the upright,
in the congregation. Psalm 111:1 NRSV
"Gracias!" "Thank You!"
It doesn't matter what language we speak, it is always good to give thanks
to the Lord. We will have the opportunity to express our gratitude in
both English and Spanish as we worship with the congregation of Casa de Fe
on Thanksgiving Sunday, November 20.
The Service will begin at 11:00
a.m. and will be held in Fuller Hall on the second floor of the Parish House
(brick building beside our church building on Main St.)
We will be following the instruction of
the Apostle Paul when he wrote: "as you sing psalms and hymns and spiritual
songs among yourselves, singing and making melody to the Lord in your
hearts, give thanks to God the Father at all times and for everything in the
name of our Lord Jesus Christ" Ephesians 5:19-20.
I will bring the message that day in
English and the Rev. Ricardo Franco, Pastor of Casa de Fe, will provide the
Spanish translation.
As part of the worship, we will continue
our tradition of presenting out financial pledge cards for next year, our
Thanksgiving offering, as well as our Ingathering of food donations which
will provide Thanksgiving dinners for clients of Housing Families, Inc.
Following the service, everyone is invited to share in a meal. We are
asked to provide desserts.
Plan to join in our combined worship
experience and "give thanks to the Lord, for He is good."
Pastor Martha Dominy
