God's
plenty is a matchless wonder of apple and grape, squash and
pumpkin, lemon and pomegranate.
As we move now into the new year, as in each new season, we're reminded of God's providential
care. It's in the renewal of sky and earth, in his fastidious
attention to mountain laurel and flitting bird. Everywhere
we see the signs of abundance, of love and grace.
Let the measure of this season’s ardor for gift and blessing
be upon you!
As you visit this site, our hope is that
it calls out to you, our sister or brother,
in a solicitude
of joyous
fellowship.
Let the words and images here be food for the spirit.
Let the report of the goodness of God be upon all of us, and
there will be rejoicing in the land.
We hope you'll find the pages here a ready instrument of love’s
unbounded power for ...
- drawing those at a distance near and
- singing the song of high regard for the world and God
who made it.
May God's blessings continue to keep you in the
months ahead.
Ever yours in Christ,
--
Rev. Edward Scott

A "State of the Country" address was presented at our Virginia Annual Conference in late April by Rev. Edward Scott. Read this pointed review that focuses on our current political climate and the role of religion and the black pulpit in our nation's affairs.  |

In the life of our church ... Listen to a recording of Rev. Edward Scott's keynote address for Staunton's Big Read. His 3/11/08 remarks on To Kill a Mockingbird were also described in this article that appeared in our local paper;see also this article, describing church member Brenda Bolen's involvement with the Big Read and the Staunton Public Library ... In November 2007, the men rehabbed our food pantry, painting and installing new shelves as part of Men's Day. ... Congratulations to our Man of the Year, Robert Mott! ... We exercised our faith and raised over $800 for a good cause at the annual American Heart Assn.'s Heart Walk last fall ... See pictures from this and other events.
