Portions of second reading read by Alliee DeArmond last Sunday:
“So we are always confident; even though we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord – for we walk by faith, not by sight….For all of us must appear before the judgement seat of Christ, so that each may receive recompense for what has been done in the body, whether good or evil….
“From now on, therefore, we regard no one from a human point of view, even though we once knew Christ from a human point of view, we know him no longer in that way. So if anyone is in Christ there is a new creation, everything old has passed away; see everything has become new! from 2 Corinthians 5: 6-17

Doing the last reading at the Depot Hill St. John’s church is special ….
At the new St. John’s in Aptos … just driving by … you can see through the front door and see the fence for the low income housing situated next door.
Any idea why the new St. John’s faces a fence when, had it been rotated, the buildnggg would have a view of Monterey Bay?
