Letter from Pastor Stephanie:
The celebrations of Easter and Pentecost have filled our church with joy, color, music, and the powerful reminders of God’s presence among us. Now, as the church season shifts into what is often called “Ordinary Time,” we begin a quieter season in the life of the church.
But “ordinary” does not mean unimportant.
Ordinary Time is the season where faith is lived out in everyday moments — in family dinners, summer vacations, cookouts, baseball games, gardening, long evenings, and busy schedules. It is the season where we are reminded that God is present not only in the great celebrations, but also in the routines of daily life.
Summer can quickly become a busy time. School schedules change, vacations are planned, weekends fill up, and many of us spend more time traveling or outdoors. These are wonderful blessings and opportunities for rest and renewal. Yet in the middle of all the activity, it is easy to drift away from the habits that help keep us grounded in faith.
Take time for prayer, even if it is only a few quiet moments at the start of the day. Open your Bible and reflect on God’s promises. Worship whenever you are able, whether here at Zion’s or while traveling. Reach out to one another. Encourage one another. Faith grows best when we continue to walk together.
Pentecost reminded us that the Holy Spirit continues to move and work through ordinary people in ordinary places. The Spirit does not take the summer off — and neither does God’s love for us.
May this season be filled with rest, laughter, renewal, and moments where you clearly see God at work in your life and in the world around you.
“Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:6-7)
Wishing you a blessed and faith-filled summer,
Pastor Stephanie
