Pastor’s Column

    Plan to join us as we move into Holy Week and Easter.  We’ll begin Holy Week with the Main Street Palm Sunday procession at 9:30 a.m. with our Main Street brothers and sisters. After worship, we’ll enjoy a pot-luck lunch on the grounds and an Easter egg hunt for our children.  On Thursday evening we will experience one of the most meaningful services of the church year, the reenactment of the Lord’s Supper. On Saturday the youth will lead us in our annual vigil at 8:00 p.m. Then, of course, we will gather on Easter Sunday to celebrate the resurrection.  Each service will give us a deeper understanding of who God is and who God is calling us to be as Christ followers. I look forward to seeing you there.

     Our Building for Hope Team is off to a great start. The first retreat in Alexandria was educational and inspiring, and our larger team here at SCC is meeting regularly as we begin to move through this process. Please pray that we will all bring open hearts and minds to the process and that together we will discern how God is calling us to better utilize our building to expand our mission and help us thrive into the future. If you have questions about this initiative, feel free to reach out to Jim or Carman Goben or Tracy.   

     Please continue to pray for our church and our Search Team as we continue to move through the transition process.  Pray that God will unite us in common purpose and that God will lead the search team to the pastor that God has been preparing to lead us into the next chapter of our story.

Until then, I’m on the journey with you,

Tracy
