Reflections From Sunday Evening

Tonight at our youth meeting pastor Roy announced that he is resigning as our youth pastor. Roy has built up our program and we are very grateful for all that he and his wife, Beth, have brought to Platte Woods UMC. We wish him only the best as he continues to follow God's leading and moves forward into the future.

This week we will begin our search for someone to build on the foundation that has been established. In the interim, Rachel Zolnowski, assistant youth director, will continue to lead the program. I would ask for continued prayers as we move forward in this vital ministry of our church.

On another note - thanks to Ginger for her great sermon today. She has started us on the journey to the cross.

We find ourselves in the season of Lent. We had a great attendance for our Ash Wednesday service. Now we continue to prepare ourselves for Easter. We prepare for celebration through self examination - repentance - and spiritual disciplines.

Join me in prayer and action as we follow Jesus.
