Summer Sunday Series: Why Church? Why Pullen? Why Now? Sundays at 9:30 am in Finlator Hall June: 4, 11, 18 & 25, July 9,16, 23 &30, August:6 & 13
Our community has taken a new shape in recent years, yet pandemic precautions left us with fewer opportunities to connect and reflect. As we discern together where the Spirit is leading our congregation in this next chapter of its history, we must take stock of who we have been, who we are now, and whom we are becoming together.
This summer, our Summer Sunday program (9:30-10:30 am) will be an exciting series that pairs new and long-time members to share what brought them to Pullen and why they have stayed active in the church for many years. In some cases, we will hear stories of people leaving Pullen to return years later. Sharing our stories is one way that we build community and unite in the mission of doing justice, loving mercy, and walking humbly. I once had a mentor that would say to me, “Nancy, it’s all about relationship.” If he was right, and I have a hunch he was, strengthening our relationships with one another (really getting to know one another) will make us a stronger community in whatever ways we labor to build God’s kin-dom here on this earth.
As these stories weave us together, we will trace our emerging hopes and dreams for the future of Pullen Church. So, mark your calendars now for the following Sundays this summer and let’s show up for one another. There will be fellowship time from 10:30-10:50 am.
