Dear Glen Morris, 

Peace be with you! This week I am happy to offer you the following list:

10 Reasons to Connect with Your Local Minister

  1. You feel like you haven’t had a chance to get to know them yet and you’d like to spend time together. 
  2. You would like someone to help you plan a prayer or ritual to mark a special occasion in your life: blessing a new home, the start of a new garden, a memorial service for the death of a pet, a sending off for a child moving away from home for the first time, preparing to move into a nursing or retirement home. 
  3. You would like someone to listen and support you through a major life decision or challenging experience. 
  4. You’re wondering if the church is the right place for you and want to know more about the life and work of the church. 
  5. You would like to be connected to some resources to help you further explore a spiritual or religious question you have. 
  6. You would like support on a project related to community building, justice work, or a passion project. 
  7. You don’t feel comfortable going to church but still want a connection with someone you can talk to about spirituality and religion. 
  8. You live next door and need a cup of sugar. 
  9. You are looking for someone to preside at a wedding, baptism, or funeral. 
  10. They are your neighbour and are happy to get to know the people who make this community so wonderful. Let’s break bread together or go for a trail walk! 

Hope to connect with you soon!

Yours in Christ,
