"If we relegate worship to meetings...it then becomes situational. Worship is relational, therefore we do it in life!"
After a summer of family connections and informal outdoor gatherings, we are looking forward to our "relational life worship" time together this Sunday, October 9 at 6pm at Phonics Phactory 3333 NE Eighth St. Gresham (no potluck this month). Sunday October 14 we will resume our 4pm potluck and worship gatherings at the Troutdale House for the remainder of the year.
This season, for Carlene and I, has been challenging and filled with opportunities to live in joyful worship (YEA!!). We have been faced with learning new skills regarding the management of family estate properties. She is doing great but we both have needed the wisdom of Solomon in our "training for reigning". Thank you for praying with us.
