Happy Fall!

We have had a great beginning to the fall season at Power House. Now that the excitement of costumes and candy has passed, let’s really focus on giving thanks this November.

November is a time when we remember our blessings and give thanks for the people and good things in our lives. Sometimes it is difficult to recognize our blessings. And we all have days when we are less than cheerful. Even in those moments, we are asked to remember that we belong to Christ Jesus, and the great gift that He has given each of us.

This month our Scripture lessons include how we can use our gifts and talents, serve others and give thanks to God. At the end of the month we will begin the Advent season. Advent is the weeks leading up to Christmas in which we read and prepare for Christmas. Everyone is welcome to join us on the first Sunday of Advent, November 27th for worship.

Take time this Thanksgiving season to look around and give thanks. See the beautiful fall leaves, the brisk weather and our family and friends, all part of God’s blessing. We look forward to sharing with you and your family this Thanksgiving season. God continues to shower blessings on our neighborhood. Look around and give thanks for what God has done!

In Christ,

The Power House
