A Message from Pastor
Bill Nylund |
 |
In today's society, we are inundated with items that will supposedly solve all our
problems and make life easier. Advertisers lead us to believe that their
unique product will meet the "needs" that they attempt to convince
us we have. Despite their claims, we still face challenges and we come
to realize that life isn't always "perfect."
Regardless
of a person's situations, I believe there are a few needs in life that
are universal. These are:
the need
for meaning and hope,
the need for belonging and acceptance,
the need for usefulness.
At
Milwaukie Covenant Church, we direct people in meeting those needs.
First, we believe that hope does not come in a bottle or a new toy,
but in a book called the Bible. In it we learn that our hope is
in Jesus Christ. Second, Jesus taught that all people, regardless
of race and social status were accepted and welcomed in his house.
That too is what we try to emulate at MCC. Finally, regardless of
experience and background, all are useful in the sight of God and
that He equips each person for service.
Come visit us. |
