I am excited to announce “Pay It Forward: And Who Is My Neighbor?” which is our theme for the next 4 weeks as we consider together as a congregation what God might be calling us to do for our surrounding community in the following year. Our mission and vision statements strongly focus on looking beyond ourselves to serve the community and bring aloha to our neighbors. Then, on November 6, we will be making our financial commitments for 2017 as we keep in mind our calling to serve others. In the meantime, I invite you to pray the following prayer with me:
O God, as we seek to reach out into our community by sharing aloha with everyone in the coming year, open my heart so that love will feely flow in and freely flow out of it.
May the commitment I make truly represent the gratitude I have to you for all that Koloa Union Church means to me.
Amen!
I look forward to seeing you in church as we seek together how we might bring aloha to the people around us who have deep longings for a better life.
Aloha nui!
