Annual burning of the ornamental grass



Every year John gets his chance to burn something outdoors - the ornamental grass that grows across Grogg Alley from the church building. Hannah has inherited this interest in fire and was glad to help out. Chad, Carson and Jesse showed up too. Most of us probably have things we should clear out and burn up - things like unforgiveness, an old grudge against someone, a bad habit. In a few weeks this blackened earth will be covered with green shoots of new life.

Romans 6:4
We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
