Presbyterian HIV/AIDS Awareness
If this is your first visit to the Sunday Sidelined cyberpew, welcome. This service was envisioned for those unable to attend worship (at home when the bell rings) and was prepared by two Disabled Presbyterian pastors who could not always join with a congregation. It is posted to a meeting on Ecunet/Lightworks, SUNDAY SIDELINED and send by E-mail on request. Your notes are welcome to this meeting on Ecunet or to Kay’s Inbox. kay.puckett@presbynet.org Please share or use any or all of this as you wish. This liturgy was written in 1997 by Chuck Carter, who entered God’s presence in March 2005. Kay adds weekly portions.
The Lord Be with You Sideliners
The cows are meandering toward the barn and the hay and pasture field are lightly glittered with what appears to be the first frost. The outside thermometer read 33 F this morning. Surprise! There is some fruit on the vine - rather green peppers on the plants - so an early morning harvest is in order. Even though the days are growing shorter and the chill is keeping the farmer inside, there’s something that feels good and right about autumn. I grew up with James Whitcomb Riley in my ear so I can hear in my memory , ” Oh it’s then a feller is a’ feeling at his best with the risin’ sun to greet him from a night of peaceful rest . . . When the frost is on the punkin’ and the fodder’s in the shock. ” And now I even know what fodder is.
Come and worship.
Our liturgy remains basically the same. Scripture and musings are added fresh each week.
Shalom, Kay
