		<description><![CDATA[Proverbs 8: 22-31; Romans 5: 1-5; John 16: 12-15 Names are important to us.  When God made all of the creatures of the world, God brought them to Adam so that Adam might name them.  When a child is born, one of the very first things we do is give that child a name.  By knowing a person&#8217;s name we can begin to know things about that person and eventually enter into a relationship with that person. The focus of today&#8217;s celebration is the name we have for God, &#8220;Trinity.&#8221;  We know our God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  God revealed this name to us so that we might enter into the union of intimacy which God shares as Father, Son, and Spirit. We have many other names for God:  the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the almighty, all-powerful, everlasting, ever-present One.  These names gain their richest meaning though when we begin to see ourselves in light of them.  We, who are created in the image and likeness of God, have an intimate connection to the almighty, the all-powerful, the everlasting. Our first reading tells us that wisdom has been present from the very beginning [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Be a pillow of the Church? This message might make you think of an old Saturday Night Live routine about a character who never quite correctly heard what was said. “What’s this I hear about a pillow of the Church? Oh, pillar of the Church. Never mind…” But this is intentional. We’ve all heard of referring to some as “pillars of the Church” – a compliment offered about those who are upstanding, strong and “holding up the structure.” But upon careful analysis of the image, it doesn’t seem to be very warm or flexible. As with all symbolic language, it is both enriching and limited at the same time. The image of “pillow of the Church” is quite different. It is supportive of the structure, but in a softer and gentler way. Pillows can represent comfort, nurturing and intimacy – an insightful image for how we want to help the women and children currently staying at the YWCA Emergency Shelter. Our Thanksgiving collection this year will be given to the YWCA Shelter. It has been a challenging time as they have tried to meet the needs of the many, many women and children who have needed shelter there this fall. [...]]]></description>
