R U Missing?
Sunday, October 3rd, 2010Each summer Polly, Tara, Trey, and I meet up with Polly’s family for a week at the Frio River. One of the many activities is the traditional “putting the puzzle together activity.” During the week, family members can at their leisure sit down and put pieces of the puzzle together. Occasionally pieces go missing by someone unknowingly knocking pieces off the table where they become hidden under furniture. Or there have been times when some of the youngest family members intentionally hide pieces so as the picture in the puzzle gets more defined, they have a piece to put in. (Some of you are smiling because you’ve done the same thing!) When pieces do go missing and are never found, the puzzle is incomplete.
The church is the same way. The apostle Paul wrote in Romans that we all form one body and we each belong to all the others. In other words, Katy Community Fellowship is like a puzzle, and each family member is a piece of that puzzle. When a piece is missing the puzzle isn’t complete. I saw this line awhile back: CH__ __CH What’s missing? Followed by the letters U R.
The month of October, Katy Fellowship is putting together a church puzzle. Each family should receive a puzzle piece to bring with you to church on Oct. 17th. Make sure U R not missing that day! (We’ll also have opportunities on the 24th and 31st to assemble the puzzle.) A great celebration is planned for that Sunday, so make every effort possible to be there with your family. That evening, we will have a family picnic at Mary Jo Peckham Park. There will be lots of food and games for everyone. RSVP to the church office so we will have plenty of food. It will be a great day!
Praying for You,
Tim
