Highlights of this Month: This month is a month of life, relationship, and heritage. Today we celebrate Ascension Sunday where we recognize and celebrate the Ascension of our Lord Jesus Christ into heaven. On May 23rd we wear red in observance of Pentecost Sunday where the Holy Spirit came to the disciples with burning tongues and power from on high. Heritage Sunday on May 23rd provides an opportunity for reflection on heritage, celebration of where the Church has been, how it understands itself as it shapes us today, and the meaning of Christian conferencing. Heritage Sunday calls the Church to remember the past by committing itself to the continuing call of God. May is also the Asian Pacific-Islanders Heritage Month. May we as a body and congregation celebrate the diversity of our church this month and every month.
