There's a Dream that We Dream How the World Should Be...
We've taken on a big project, sponsoring Patty Wetterling to come speak to our community. She is a nationally known speaker, but she speaks with the heart of a mother who has suffered a terrible loss. Her talk is titled, “There's a Dream that We Dream How the World Should Be...” Our dream is a world where the Golden Rule is lived out; where children are safe in their homes and community, a world where the darkness of abuse and trafficking and pornography and fear is greatly reduced.
As Christians, we have that vision but live with the understanding that we live in a fallen world. God's kingdom has come to earth, but it is not fully realized and so we struggle with evil, with violence, with sin. We are praying that this community presentation can be a starting point for further discussions that can make us more responsible citizens and better parents, leaders and Christians.
The presentation is at the Bernie Aaker Auditorium (across from the church and south one block). The time is from 7:00-8:30pm on September 26th. We are hoping to have a time to visit afterwards. There is no cost to attend. We consider it an important start to opening up discussions in our community to make our town and county and state a safer place for our children. Watch our webpage for future events.
If you have questions, committee members are: Co-chairs Judy Holmes and Kay Hanson, Stephanie Rech, Amy Levinski and Pastor Gordy.

The goal of compassion is not to care because someone is like us but to care because they are themselves.
