At last, Fall has come to our western North American home, with cool mornings and shorter days of light. As many neighbors look forward to secular holidays, I celebrate this “ordinary time,” as the Christian worship calendar calls it. That means "ordered," not ho hum. Those who follow the global Lectionary of Bible readings get to read several entire Books of the Bible instead of just excerpts. We move in an ordered way toward Reign of Christ Sunday, Nov. 22nd, the end and fulfillment of this worship year. May you find increasing fulfillment in your life with God. Betsy
