PASTOR'S LETTER TO THE CONGREGATION 

Dear Friends:

Belonging to Christ is a great blessing. And it brings blessings, not only to those who belong to Him,
 but to everyone nearby them. After all, if you are close to Christ, then anyone who is close to you
 can’t help but be close to Christ too.

Belonging to Christ won’t automatically make you a good speaker. It won’t mean you’ll know everything. And it 
won’t mean your faith will be unfailingly strong at all times. But it will mean that when you do speak, you will be worth
 listening to. It will mean that you will know what is most important. And it will mean your faith, whatever its strength, 
will bring life to you and others. Why? Because belonging to Christ, you will know love. 
St. Paul says it so well in First Corinthians. Being a good speaker, having lots of knowledge, even having a strong faith - 
these qualities, as admirable as they are, are worthless if love is missing. But in the one in whom the love of 
Jesus Christ dwells, these qualities are a gift: a gift to the neighbor, and a gift to the world.
