ReFormation Sunday

Reformation Sunday for those believers of the reformed faith.


Martin Luther joined us this morning in church.

It was a good service.  We sang only from the psalms something which Martin Luther loved to sing. 

Did you know he was first to provide a hymnbook for the members of congregation so that they too could sing along?

The reflection was about Joshua leading the people into the promised land and each tribe taking stones from the Jordan as a commemoration of the event; the First Nations peoples of Canada and the work that has yet to be done in order for there to be real reconciliation and forgiveness; and the life of Marin Luther, specifically the 95 thesises he nailed on the church door which ignited the reformed movement within the church.  I wonder if he had any inkling of an idea of what he started by doing this.  It sure got him in hot water with the ecclesiastical powers that be.

It was quite a sermon.

On the home front, our power was out for about four hours.  

We went to NM for a drive and a coffee.  The power was back when we got home.

So the muffins are baked for tomorrow.  They will be finished with the topping of worms and dirt tomorrow morning.  I am excited to see the finished results.

It`s been a fiercely windy day with rain.  The skies have been dark and gloomy all day.  It continues into this early evening.

Better days ahead as my grandfather used to say.  Halloween promises to be better.  I hope so for the sake of all the goblins and ghouls who will be outside.

What did you do on your Sunday?
