Dear Cross and Crown Family,
It is a time of changes. Last week, we sprung forward, setting our clocks to Pacific Daylight Time as we prepare to spring into Spring. This past Autumn, we made the difficult decision to put our beloved church on the market, and today we find ourselves in Escrow. It was just months ago that our dear pastor, Stephanie Lape accepted a new call, and it has been one month since she last presided over the Communion table with us.
Many of these events have been painful, but as spring approaches, we see the signs of rebirth at Cross and Crown as well. First of these, we will welcome our new Bridge Pastor, Rev. Sandy Bentz to our congregation on Palm Sunday, April 2, 2023. We look forward to celebrate her arrival as we celebrate Holy Week. Our relocation committee has been looking at possible locations for us to move to after the sale. Our church council will be looking it and making a decision on whether it will be a suitable home for us as we move forward.
Next Sunday, March26, we will have a supply pastor presiding over our worship service. That means that this will be a service of Holy Communion. All are welcome to the table.
So, with the coming of Spring, we can see the signs of new life coming to us at Cross and Crown. We look forward to seeing you as we conclude our Lenten journey and move into Holy Week remembrances. Then, on Easter Sunday, join with us as we celebrate the glorious resurrection of our Lord and Savior. Easter goodies for the children will be available after the service.
Yours in Christ,
Cross and Crown Council
