REFLECTIONS
Welcome back to the Lutheran Church of
Mahomet programming year! It is our
prayer that this summer has been a time
of relaxation, reflection, fun and excite-
ment, fond memories, and adventure. As
we gather back at LCM from our summer
excursions, we are excited to usher in an-
other exciting programming year filled
with worship, service, and learning.
As we convene again after the summer
months, no doubt transformed by our
various experiences, we remember our
devotion to something larger than our-
selves, God’s call on our lives to love our
creator, God’s creation, and ourselves.
Each of our journeys enriches the church’s
pursuit of this call: every memory, every
emotion, every witness, and every unique-
ness that you bear is a gift to our Christian
community.
Take a moment
to think back on
this summer…
How have you seen God living and moving in
your life? How have you felt God’s presence
around you, or how have you yearned to feel
God at work? These last few months, you
have seen God at work in ways that no one
else can see. You have been gifted with a
unique perspective and faith, which will en-
rich our church. And, so, as we gather this fall
for another programming year, we are excit-
ed and empowered to share all of ourselves
at the Lutheran Church of Mahomet, in the
hopes that we can continue to grow and
share in God’s great diversity.
So, I here invite you to bring your memories,
your energy or exhaustion, your emotions,
and your whole self to church this fall. To-
gether, we will grow in leaps and bounds in
Sunday School, worship, service, preschool,
LOGOS, youth programs, adult education, fel-
lowship, and more. This will be a common
place where we can praise the God who sees
us through it all.
Peace,
Pr Nikoli
