Taking a Good Walk

We live in a time where many health contious people take daily walks as a part of trying to lead a healthier lifestyle. We do it to burn off a few calories, to strenghten muscles and to keep our heart in good shape. But let me tell you about a "walk" I encourage you to consider so that not only will you be healthier physically, but also emotionally and spiritually. That walk is the distance between the pew you sit in on Sunday morning and the Altar at the front of the sanctuary. A walk I am going to invite to take this coming Sunday so that Christ Jesus can begin the emotional and spiritual healing your lives need as well. At the end of that short walk a service will takeplace that God has called His priests to perform centuries ago and still calls us to take part in today, The Anointing service. A time for you to take that short walk to the altar and let us anoint you with oil on your forehead. Three little drops of oil that symbolize the forgiveness of God, the healing of God and the everlasting presence of God in your life. Then hands will be laid upon your head and shoulders as we have a brief time of prayer for you. A time to be made whole physically, emotionaly and spiritualy. This coming Sunday I encourage you to take that short walk down the asile and to allow our Lord to minister to you through His anointing. He will be there waiting for you as will members of your faith family!
