Memorial Weekend

I am looking forward to our Memorial Weekend worship experience this morning at New Season. It looks like we are going to have great weather for worshiping outside. Every Memorial Weekend and Labor Day Weekend we worship outside as a change of pace and because so many of our folks are out of town. We then grill out. We are also doing a blessing of the animals and their owners this morning. It all makes for a fun time in the midst of solemnity as we remember those who have paid the price for our freedom to worship and assemble and all our other freedoms. And most importantly as we remember Jesus who gave us freedom from brokenness, sin, and anything else that would bind us and rob us of the freedom God desires to give us through his life, death and resurrection.

Happy Memorial Day.
