A Message from Pastor Gary – October

This Autumn Fall Back into Church

The Fall is the beginning of the busy season. School starts, extracurricular activities resume, and
for many, work responsibilities increase. It is also the case that many have been traveling and have been
away from church. So, this Fall let’s fall back into church.
The God that we worship is worthy of our praise and thanksgiving. He is worthy of our time. He
gave us this glorious planet and all that is in it; from the rich soil producing food, to the seas and all their
creatures, to the birds of the air, to the family and friends that support us. He loves us so much and He
never gives up on us.
Reflecting on Psalm 8 the Psalmist says, “O Lord our God, how majestic is your name in all the
earth, when I consider the work of your hands, the moon and the stars that you have set in their courses.
What is humankind that you are mindful of them, that you care for them, you have made them to rule
over all the works of your hands, you have put everything under their feet, the sheep, the oxen and all
beast, the birds of the air and the fish of the sea.”
Regardless of your personal circumstances, you have been placed in the highest position in God’s
creation. Remembering this and living out of this knowledge can have a tremendous impact on your life.
“What is humankind that you are mindful of them . . . you have put everything under their feet.” “O Lord
our God, how majestic is your name in all the earth . . .” This autumn fall back into church.
