Dear Sisters and Brothers,
Out of abundant love for all creation, God is always doing a new thing in our midst. Presiding Bishop, Michael Curry, is inviting/encouraging/challenging us to be the Episcopal branch of the Jesus Movement. As Jesus' people in the world, we are called to respond to God’s generosity with thankful and tender hearts.
As we prepare for another year of dynamic and faithful ministry, your support is needed. My wife, Becky, and I have been so humbled by the amazing hospitality shown to us here and in the community. We have been worshiping together, sharing passionately at Adult Forums, breaking bread in fellowship, and dreaming up ways that the parish can respond to God’s call as the hands and feet of Christ in Saluda and our Diocese. These dreams have produced a successful mission trip hosted on our campus, and a vibrant new grocery ministry called The Pop Up Pantry of Saluda, serving over forty families each week with groceries provided by MANNA Foodbank in Asheville.
The stakes are high because we’re working for God! My prayer is that we as our Transfiguration family can preserve the history and tradition of spreading God’s love and hope to the world. Please give generously.
This is a wonderful time to be in ministry together at Church of the Transfiguration. Together, we are making a difference in this parish family, in the wider Saluda community, and beyond in the world.
Faithfully,
The Rev. Chip Broadfoot (Rector)
