Troop 51 Summer Camp

church lifepastor, August 6, 2008 @ 6:07 pm

One of the Moms sent the following email:

“Hopefully the adult leaders who attended Summer Camp with the boys have had a chance to recuperate. I know I still see Dave taking in a yawn or two during the day. However, his moaning from aches and pains has subsided significantly. ; )

I cannot thank each of you enough for the sacrifices you made to make this (in Michael’s words) “The Best Summer Camp Ever.” One of the first things both of our boys said as they walked in the door was, “We have so much to tell you.” The next thing they wanted to do was go to bed for a week.

This can only mean one thing…

Everyone must have worked their tail ends off!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I am more and more impressed with Troop 51 and its quality leadership (both adults and boys) each year. Thank you for giving this wonderful opportunity to my sons. They have returned better people.

I also wanted to thank those who loaned out their cars. Dave said it was a godsend to have them.”

All the people

church lifepastor, July 26, 2008 @ 1:07 pm



“Whoever welcomes you welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me.” Matthew 10:40-42
That is why we spread the message of God’s extravagant welcome, reaching out especially to those who have felt there is no room for them within Christianity and the church – the excluded and alienated, the spiritually homeless, the questioning.
This fall, the United Church of Christ plans to air the beloved “Steeples” commercial to a national audience, bringing Jesus’ message of unity, welcome and hope to millions of people. It’s our turn to speak!
To do this, we need to raise a minimum of $350,000.
Be God’s welcome. Together, let’s bring Steeples to the peoples.

Religion in Utah

church lifepastor, June 24, 2008 @ 11:52 am

A major survey by the Pew Research Center’s Forum on Religion & Public Life finds that most Americans have a non-dogmatic approach to faith. “The survey shows religion in America is, indeed, 3,000 miles wide and only three inches deep,” said D. Michael Lindsay, a Rice University sociologist of religion. According to the survey 6% of the Utah population consider themselves part of the mainline protestant tradition. Another 16% are not affiliated to any believe. Mormonism’s theoretical exclusivism is not part of what most people believe and the survey shows that just every other Utah resident belongs to the LDS church. Every fifth Utahn is or could be a mainline protestant.
