Dear First Pres,
1 Peter 5:8, “Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” Do you remember Beth Paz highlighting this verse on Sunday?
The word “devil” comes from the root word that means “to split or divide.” Pastor Max Lucado writes, “The devil is a splitter, a divider, a wedge driver. He divided Adam and Eve from God in the garden and has every intent of doing the same to you.” And, I would add, “and to our congregation.”

Dear First Pres,
I’m back!
As many of you know, vacation is a wonderful gift. It’s so good to get extra time with family, visit new places, take it slow, read for fun, enjoy extended time with the Lord, take a nap, and unplug from the demands of normal work life. That’s what I experienced this last month, and I am so grateful for the incredible volunteers and staff who made it possible for me to step away. What a blessing!

Dear First Pres,
Ten years ago I was hired as a Networker (now called Summer Staff) with five other college-aged peers to serve in youth ministry. I remember getting a phone call earlier that spring asking if I would still consider coming even though the church was going through a lot (the tragic loss of Pastor Jamie Evans). It was definitely a strange time to enter into a new community, but all summer the people of FPC made our team feel welcomed, loved, and that our efforts to care for students mattered.
