WELCOME TO MY "Pastor's Weekly Update"
In support of my ministry to the United Church of Christ at The Villages, Florida
Growing up in the 1950’s gave us the opportunity to try many exciting products. In 1959 my grandmother introduced me to a new miracle product called, PLEDGE.
That’s when I learned that PLEDGE was a verb, an action word, something that you DO. She and I wiped PLEDGE throughout her house. We breathed new life into everything in that house, from the worn-down wooden kitchen table to the linoleum floors. Yes, linoleum floors!
If you’ve ever sprayed PLEDGE on a floor, you discovered PLEDGE is an action word! Grandma and I discovered the action later that day when we skated across the kitchen! There was no stopping us! We were hooked on PLEDGE!
Today, as we at UCC at The Villages look forward to a new year, we are reminded that all of us can take action. How? PLEDGE! Help our church plan for the coming fiscal year! PLEDGE! Skate into the new year with renewed promise! PLEDGE! That way 2021 will be an opportunity for us, together, as an action-oriented congregation, to breathe new life into our church. Blessings!
