2008.07.21 Monday Morning!

Greetings and best wishes from Pilgrim Presbyterian Church, in the heart of Vinita, Oklahoma.


Some of you, living far away from Vinita, remember your childhood and youth as part of this community of faith. I want you to know that the congregation remembers you, too. "Greetings and best wishes" are sent each week with sincerity and with thanks for technology which keeps us in touch.


I used to say "a stamp has power", and of course it does. But, how much more power (and speed) has email. Whether by stamp or by email "keep in touch" with family and friends. Sharing your joys, brings joy; your success does others a lot of good; and sorrows shared can help others carry your burden.


In 2 Corinthians 3:3, Paul wrote to his friends, "You are a letter from Christ." Does that sound odd? It's not, really, when we think that it is through us that Christ communicates.


Continue writing your letters/emails which keep family ties and genuine friendships in constant repair.


A stamp has power! Email does, too.


Keep in touch,
Richard
