Sharing Ourselves & Resources

Prayer of Confession (unison)
We want to do as you require. We try. We want to use our resources of time, talent, and money for the furtherance of your unfolding kin_dom. But we confess we’ve failed to live into our potential and we’ve hurt our family and our neighbors. We confess we hold tight to resources out of fear that you have not provided enough for everyone. Forgive us as we re-commit to be the people you know we can be. Amen. 

Assurance of Grace
God’s love is big enough for each of us. There is enough love for you. Our God created a world of abundance. Share the Good News of God’s boundless love with one another.

Passing of the Peace
You are God’s Beloved.
As are you.

Tim is a runner, a hiker, a devoted husband, a father of two adult children, and their spouses, and a grandfather of four perfect children. A former early childhood educator, Tim is an ordained minister in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). He has served as pastor of both Disciples and United Church of Christ congregations. As we enter what we hope is the final phase of the pandemic, Tim is beginning a journey of rediscovering himself and discerning next steps. He writes from his home in Albany, Oregon and wherever the Spirit lures him.
