Blessings Everyone, All of us have been somewhere on the path, the journey with God. I have known over most of my life that as I wander, God is always in some way with me. My life has never been straightforward – and rather, a bit like a labyrinth or […]

Dear Friends, I look forward to worshipping with you at 6:30 PM, March 23 in the sanctuary at San Gabriel Presbyterian Church. As we have explored courage this season, we have reflected on what it means to have the courage to see, hear, discern, love, suffer, and believe. This month we will […]
Dear Sister and Brothers in Christ, We gather again on Sunday, February 23 at 6:30 p.m. for our Wholeness Service in San Gabriel Presbyterian Church. What a gift of love from God: a gift of music, a gift of Word, a gift of light, a gift of Table, a gift […]
Dears, Happy New Year! I’ve been reflecting on life’s complexities and paradoxes. As we consider the stars, the huge Texas sky, the sun rises and sunsets…it’s so beautiful. And then, we consider the illnesses and deaths and complicated relationship issues…it’s such a contrast to the beauty, and we suffer. In our […]

God’s love for us is relentless. God sees each of us as precious. We are surrounded, immersed, and permeated with this love. We don’t earn this love, we return it. The big question is “how do I do this?” God Bless Us All–Every One! Jim Deuser
This month we explore “Courage to Love.” Wow, what a challenge! Since I’m not an ordained minister or preacher, instead of a “meditation,” I would like to offer some “reflections” to contemplate. Perhaps definitions for “Courage” and “Love” in this context will help. I see “Courage,” as “Strength in the […]
“Courage and Good Night.” You have to be of a certain age or demographic for that phrase to sound familiar. “Courage and Good Night” was Dan Rather’s sign off after the CBS Evening News. It’s like Walter Cronkite’s “And that’s the way it is,” Edward R. Murrow’s “Good night […]
Courage is the theme for this year’s Georgetown Ecumenical Wholeness Service. Last Month Rev. Vicky Joy McClure shared Courage to Hear, and in September Rev. Mary Sallet shared Courage to See, so it seems fitting that our focus this month is Courage to Discern after we have both seen and […]
Once upon a time, a long time ago, (but not too long) there was a boy named Samuel and he had never before heard the Lord’s voice, but he kept hearing a call in the darkness of night. Come hear more of the story as we read from I Samuel […]
