"...let us eat and celebrate." Luke 15:23
Ok, full disclosure. If you look up Luke 15:23, you will find that it is practically in the middle of the story of the prodigal son. But let me tell you, a church picnic is not the easiest thing to find a verse in the Bible to go along with!
Church, let's break bread together this Sunday. It's a common thread in the early church that seems lost in today's church culture. Come for worship at 10am at the high school, just like normal, then after our worship gathering is over, we'll head to the park and enjoy one another's company and fellowship for the afternoon. I love you all and I love food, so I'm really looking forward to this time together! If you're in town for the holiday weekend, come spend time with your church family.
Grace & Peace,
John
