Welcoming God, you open your arms to everyone: and your joyful embrace wraps the whole creation into one circle of love.

PRAYER OF DEDICATION (in unison)

For your abounding grace, we give thanks, O God. For your steadfast love, we pour out our gratitude.

Through giving in Christ’s name, we seek to grow in the Spirit of One who gave life itself for us. Amen.

DRIVE WAY VISITS
The weather is changing. Spring turns to summer and the warm air brings us out of our houses. The social distancing restrictions remain in place, but that doesn’t mean we can’t see one another. We cannot gather for worship, but I would love to come to your home for a driveway visit!

I know that not everyone is comfortable with having people from outside of their family unit coming to visit, but if you are comfortable with a six or more feet away visit, outside in your driveway, on your porch or in your yard. I’d like to come visit.

Give me a call 905-3105 or send me an email at revdawn@canandaiguachurch.org, so that we can arrange for a time for me to stop by for a short social distanced visit. I know that not everybody will want me to stop by for a driveway visit, but I look forward to seeing those of you who would enjoy a chance to chat.

Blessings,
Dawn
