Of Winners and Losers

Guess what. Politics isn’t the only realm preoccupied with winners and losers. So is Scripture. As it turns out, on this morning after the midterm elections across the nation, my summer journey through the Apocalypse ended. Looking back now I must admit, Revelation really is all about winners and losers!

Here’s a short list of them compiled just this morning:

Wind Symphony Christmas Concert

Tree of Life on Squirrel Hill: A Lament for America

Like all tragedies these days (so it seems), the slaughter of eleven worshipers at the Tree of Life synagogue in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood of Pittsburgh last Sabbath is already dimming in the national consciousness—drowned out by the cacophony of political rhetoric in advance of next week’s midterm elections.

Andrews Academy Concerto Night

Andrews Academy presents its eighth Concerto Night, under the direction of Elsy M. Gallardo-Diaz. In this annual performance, dedicated young musicians from the Academy—and also Ruth Murdoch Elementary School. Enjoy the special opportunity of performing a movement of a concerto accompanied by an orchestra. Featured students this year are Sion Kim (AA), Jihoo Choi (AA), Justin Flores (AA), Claire Yang (AA), Peter Tumangday (AA), and Isabella Patel (RMES).

"FIRST TUESDAYS" COMING

May I share a story with you. Last Sabbath afternoon our Board of Elders enjoyed a delectable Sabbath dinner with our friend, Joe Kidder (seminary professor here on campus). After our meal, Joe stood and told a story, a very personal story about a time he and his wife were pastoring a small congregation out west. Once a thriving large congregation, it had been shrinking over the years—a church tussle had led to families leaving until there were just 40 members left. When he moved to that congregation, Joe had high hopes that new church growth strategies would reverse the decline.

Sanctuary Flowers

The Sanctuary flowers for this Sabbath are donated in honor of Rom and Norita Lachica’s 50th wedding anniversary

Thanksgiving Food Collection

The PMC Evergreen Pathfinder club is starting its annual food today. We will be passing out bags in portions of the community today and collecting the filled bags on Sunday, November 4. You may also plan to bring food to church on Sabbath, November 17, as part of the offering during Hymn Fest. If you know of a family in the area who could use some extra food this upcoming holiday season please call the church office at (269) 471-6565. We need their name, address, phone number and number of people in their family. Thanks for your generosity.
