On The Table

First of all, a personal thanks for the outpouring of love, support, and prayer from y'all during Tina's recent emergency surgery. We've both been really touched and felt really loved. Y'all are simply the best, Common Table - bar none. :-)

Secondly, a great thing to do this Friday evening would be to cheer on Vinny in the Run for the Gulf 5K race in Bluemont Park in Arlington. Says Vince: "I am sickened unto death at what is happening to God's creation in the Gulf of Mexico." And also: "We can meet at the Gamma Pad for beers and eats afterwards." I tried to register but it was full - which means they're raising lots of dough for recovery from this terrible wound in God's creation. So let's give a cheer for Vinny for putting his running shoes where his heart is!

Thirdly, please join us at Jammin' Java at 10am on Sunday for a worship service in which we'll walk together through (and try to put ourselves inside) a longish section of the Gospel According to Luke. (Luke 10:38 - 11:36, in case you want to get it all figured out beforehand.) :-) We'll let Jesus challenge us - and also challenge Jesus, prayerfully, to give us insight into some of his characteristically enigmatic words. So bring your heart and head and let's see what we discover.

And that's about it for now - may God bless your hot summer days (and ah-oh, those summer nights)!

Peace,

Mike Croghan
