On Good Friday several of us gathering around the weeping tree in Bowmont park to slowly and reflectively take the weeping ties down from the tree. On Saturday we ironed them and carefully, prayerfully, tied them all together and made a banner for the Sanctuary. On Easter Sunday we had a celebratory worship service hosted by Logan and Dionne and we gave a sermon proclaiming that God is utterly alive and we reflect on how the bodily resurrection demonstrates that the earth and God are completely open towards one another. Our longing to connect is blessed by God!
