Hello Friends,

January often comes with New Year’s Resolutions. Bright hopes and expectations of how we will do better this time.

But let us go easier on ourselves this year. We have lived through some really strange times that have stressed even the best of us.  Let us find a way to our intentions for this New Year that leaves room for a change of plan.  For example, “I intend to bring my child to CRE Sunday school each Sunday.” Rather than the resolve “I resolve to bring my children to church every Sunday this year.” It just takes one Sunday to trash that resolution. Whereas with an Intention you are forgiven and allowed to start again the next Sunday.

I look forward to seeing you all Sunday!

In Peace,

Sarah Stubbs
CRE Coordinator

 

Living with Intention

In January we will explore the ways in which our times call us to “Live with Intention.” There are five ways we will explore the skills it takes to live with intention. Here they are:

• It Takes Empathy – The activation of our intentions It Takes Passion– The driver of intention.
• It Takes Persistence – The fuel of intention.
• It Takes Accepting Mistakes – The impacts of intention
• It Takes Pausing – The replenishment and sorting of intention
