Volume 2 Issue 21

Greetings once again from scenic Flagstaff where we have come for Family Weekend at Northern Arizona University. We are being treated to genuine fall colors and weather quite unlike Las Vegas, much of which we witnessed as we drove down Oak Creek Canyon to that mystical vortex that is Sedona. We’ve been having fun recalling the many good times we had in Rebecca’s birthplace, little knowing at the time that this is where Rachel would choose to go to college sixteen years later.

This is consequently a “newsletter only” weekend, and you are invited to go to the archives at the bottom of the Sermons page to find a weekly meditation of your choosing. Several of you have been sending me your responses for which I am deeply grateful. I really do use your feedback to guide and refine each new message as it is developed, and it is helpful to learn of your insights and interpretations that I would have never thought of on my own. Your responses to archived sermons are certainly welcome, as well.

It has occurred to me that some of you have changed your e-mail addresses without updating them on the GiC newsletter subscription list. While it’s paradoxical to bring this up in a newsletter that you may not be getting, I thought that it would be worth the effort to encourage everyone to enter their new address whenever it changes. The “list” is totally anonymous, and so I have no way of knowing whose address belongs to whom. You are always free to unsubscribe at any time (don’t worry about hurting my feelings, because I have no way of knowing who’s done that either).

May the week ahead be filled with the awe and wonder that comes from experiencing at-one-ment with the God of All Creation. Through our prayers may we align our hearts and minds with the One who is the very source of our being so that our lives will be filled with the joyous harmony of becoming what we have been created to become. Until next week…….Shalom!
