Pilgrims in Motion

"Pilgrims are persons in motion -
passing through territories not their own
seeing something we might call contemplation
(or perhaps clarity will do as well)
a goal to which only the Spirit's compass points the way."
~Richard Niebuhr~
What are your plans for the long weekend? This weekend is Canada's unofficial beginning of summer and many of us have traditions that we look forward to all year.

Is this the weekend you put in your garden? Do you go camping? Open the cottage? Get out your bike or canoe? Whatever it is for you hope you find spiritual renewal in your activities.

​If you stay in town I hope we will see you at church on Sunday morning. It is Pilgrim Sunday! Boyd and I are excited to share with you some of our experiences on our recent pilgrimage to sacred sites in Italy. Wear your pilgrim clothes - what would you take with you if you went on a pilgrimage? Where would you go? What would you want to learn? See? Experience? Whatever you do this weekend, offer gratitude for this gift of sabbath time.
