Last night we had our monthly parish council meeting. As has been the custom here I begin the meeting with a little segment called pastor’s time. I have used this time in the past for various things and last night I decided to use a quote that I heard many years ago and I think we can use in the church. Now this quote is not from Scripture or even from a church father. The quote is from Margaret Meade a Sociologist.
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world: indeed it is the only thing that ever has.
We are a small church but a faithful church and I believe that if we truly pray and work together we can indeed change the world. We need to pray for peace, for our leaders, for those who have been placed above us in leadership positions in the church and in the world. If we hold the church and the world in prayer, we can make a change. Let’s try, what do we have to loose.
