Queridos Todos:

This Sunday will be quite special, in that the choir will perform
several of our favorite pieces that we sang during this past year,
including Coronation Song and God to Enfold You. This is like a grand
finale and after the service the cafe juntos time (coffee fellowship
after the service) will be a chance for everyone who is so inclined to
say thanks to the choir and to Rev. Avery for his leadership of our
music program.

The Scripture for Sunday is Luke 7:36ff. An amazing story contrasting
the way Jesus sees people and the way a "pharisee" sees people. Our
challenge will be to accept the way Jesus sees us, and to see others
in that way as well.

We will also ritualize the membership of Bob Marshall, who joined the
church some time ago, but we were waiting for an appropriate time for
the congregation to recognize his membership, and sadly, we will say
good-bye in a ritual blessing to a very special person, Anu
Chathampally, who is moving to New York to be closer to her parents.
She has touched our lives in many special ways, and while our time
together was brief it was very meaningful, and we give thanks to God
that our paths crossed.

the WPC GRASSHOPPERS WON its first game last night! GO GRASSHOPPERS.
The game next week is at 7:30 on Field 1.

The group from Cleveland OH will be arriving on Thursday, June 17. We
look forward to a time of fellowship and living into our connectional
nature with this group of young people and their chaperones. Thank you
in advance to all who are helping to show them WPC hospitality!

Please pray for Isabel, Maya, Dira, Carly and me as we are heading to
Ghost Ranch for Youth Week this week from June 14-20. It should be a
great time of discovery and time with God and a lot of fun.

God Bless you all this weekend and the week to come. GO USA in the
world CUP!

Peace
