MESSAGE FROM PASTOR LIZ DAVIS
May 2025

Epiphany
Alleluia! Christ is risen! He is risen indeed! Alleluia!

Easter greetings to you all.

Have you ever had a really great experience that you just have to tell everyone about? You went out to lunch last Tuesday and you just can’t stop telling everyone about the BEST hamburger you’ve ever had and you find yourself not only recommending it but pulling up the directions on your phone to be sure the other person goes there RIGHT NOW!

Even when we know we’re being a bit over the top, we so want other people to share in that BEST experience, we tell them about it and do what we can to make it easy for them to replicate our experience. We know that when they experience it, they’ll understand why we were so excited; they will be, too.

After Jesus’ death and resurrection, it took the disciples a bit to get warmed up. They didn’t immediately go out and tell EVERYBODY about Jesus and his resurrection. They were scared, confused, and hesitant. But when Jesus assured them that he really was alive and resurrected, and after he sent his Holy Spirit to be within and among them, then they got going sharing the good news. They didn’t hold back! It was too amazing, too wonderful, to let anyone miss out on hearing that Jesus was the promised messiah, who died and rose, and changes the arc of existence so that we aren’t descending into death, we are rising into new life and a transformed world.

Is there something about your faith that is at least as good as a hamburger?
What is it?

Have you had an experience of welcome, peace, joy, forgiveness, comfort or hope? Because of your congregation, have you been able to be a part of something bigger than yourself, something making a positive difference in the world? Have you gained a new perspective or thought that helped you make sense of something?

I encourage you to not only think about it, but share. You don’t have to start with telling EVERYBODY, but maybe there are a few folks who would listen and care to hear something that’s important to you. It would be wonderful to share some of your experiences in our next newsletter, so that others can be
inspired by your witness.

God is with you!
​-Pastor Liz
