Church Notes – October, 2014

Something to Ponder:  A New Vision:  “There is a need for spiritual vitality. What protection is there against the danger of organization?...Our relationship to God {is} not a religious relationship to a supreme Being, absolute in power and goodness, which is a spurious conception of transcendence, but a new life for others, through participation in the Being of God.”  - Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Letters and Papers from Prison
