Kirkwood UCC


Kirkwood UCC...well it is where we are gathering...right? In a community that is growing and becoming...similar to the church...right? I am sorry for my back and forth. I want to honor our efforts and the efforts of the Gathering Grounds coffee house and to stick with Kirkwood UCC makes the most sense right now. Let's stay with this one for awhile--I promise NO more name changes!

And what about the website--what do you think? I think Amy Rush is an amazing and talented woman who uses her gifts in marvelous ways. Thank you Amy, thank you, thank you!

I hope and pray that this website can be away for us a way to stay connected and informed about all that is becoming in this community of faith. I hope and pray that it can be an effective way to reach out to others in our community who might be hearing that something is happening on Sunday evenings in Kirkwood, or at Habitat, or in peoples lives that are growing closer to God...that are experiencing new friendships...that are finding a way and becoming a part of something that is bigger than all of us, and real and true.

Oh my sisters and brothers, God is so good and faithful and kind and loving. I know it because I feel it and count on it in my own life, but I also see it happening in your lives and in our lives together. I thank God for loving us so much. I thank God for Jesus, who has given us everything. I thank God for the United Church of Christ, for Cameron and Tim whose support is unceasing. And I thank God for you and can't wait to be with you again on the day of rejoicing--Easter Sunday morning. Praise be to God. AMEN
