“Vision”, “mission”, “goals”, and “tasks”
action words, of power
of purpose, of calling
defining who we aspire to be
what we must do
how we will carry things out
over time, in this place now;
A pyramid of thought
putting feet to His promise
doing Christ’s work
in love for our neighbors
spreading the seed, the message
with the blessings of the Holy Spirit
In the vineyard, in the field
this troubled world,
this place we call home -
hard soil, granite ledge,
and good rich soil
the soil of a young heart
an open heart, seeking,
old members and new-born hope
white and black, yellow and brown
together striving, yearning
to do His will in this place
held in our care but
for this season alone
