CASSEROLE MINISTRY STARTING. Did you ever have a casserole or pot of soup
delivered to your home when you were sick? Many of us have experienced that and
found it to be wonderful. If you would like to be a part of this “casserole

CAPITAL CAMPAIGN PRAYER
Reverend Jonathan C. Siehl
Creator God, you mint us in your image. You press into our
being a spirit that mirrors your Spirit. Give us discernment to nurture
impressions of spirit, to seek in the murky depths of our being stirrings of the
spirit…love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness,
gentleness and self-control. In generosity, we spend a coin of the realm in your
kingdom. Turn your Spirit in us loose in your realm, that love may abound, Turn
your Spirit in us loose in your kingdom here and now, that generosity may
abound. Free up your spirit of generosity in us, that we may give our material
wealth with abandon, for your kingdom in this church, in this city, in this
place. Amen.
