By Rose Boon Pastoral Care Director God has seasons for programs and for the people ministering in them, and I am in awe watching Him move almost like a symphony at times blending and molding both for His purposes. Today, at St. Peter s Church, I believe there is an area The Lord s Table where He is pulling us in so that we can, again, go out for Him. The teaching was about how the focus of our worship should be on the Lord s Table where at least once during the week we all come together, and from which all other ministries must go out. But, as I have meditated on the words from the teaching, I have come to realize, perhaps, we are not. Compare the atmosphere of a covered dish dinner to which everyone comes and brings something.
Great care is taken in preparation, and that brings excitement and pleasure.
We wouldn t miss the event even if we didn t want to attend because we have a part in it. I m bringing the green beans. Too often, that s not what happens at St. Peter s Church on Sundays, or Wednesdays either. Altar Guild needs more than two hands to set the Lord s Table. Everything comes out of the Lord s Table.
