Peace be with you, 

This week, I’m bringing greetings from the tall cedars and salty ocean spray of BC! I have just returned from offering my leadership at a young adult church retreat called Re:Unite. Approximately 70 young adults and leaders gathered at Camp Fircom (just a short ferry ride from Vancouver!) for several days filled with all the joys of community building: worship, workshops, crafting, baking, sharing food, bonfire singalongs, and really good conversation. 

I’m so grateful to experience the vibrancy and thoughtfulness of the young adults who are engaged in the life and work of their churches and the wider denomination as well. I had the opportunity of offering several workshops on the theme of Power, Faith, and Social Change and it never stops being a powerful Spirit-led experience to facilitate such important conversations. I’m returning home grateful to have missed our surprise snowfall and with a lot of hope and excitement for the future of our church. 

 

Yours in Christ, 

Rev Michiko
