Make plans to join us tonight at 6 pm for our First Friday of the Month Potluck at Calvary Tucson East campus. It will be a night of food, fellowship, worship, and the Word. It will be in the playground area if it is not raining so be sure to bring a jacket and a blanket, and if it is raining it will be indoors. In today’s culture, meal times have been replaced with a quick bite to eat on the way out, on a tray in front of the t.v., in front of a computer while we work, or on a cell phone checking social media. Jesus used the time of gathering not only to enjoy a meal, but it was an intimate time of fellowship where He left wisdom and teachings, causing the time together to be something special. There are many thoughts that race through my mind as I read what is written in *Revelation 19:9 Then the angel said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.’”* There is a banquet coming that will be beyond compare. As we wait with expectation for that feast we should remember that there is something special that happens when we gather around our tables to enjoy a meal together with family and friends. People ask what shall I bring? There are many different choices to choose from. Some have their crockpot work all day to create a great soup or stew. While others make old family recipes too. Some deliver more than prepare. It doesn’t have to be fancy, just bring what you are inspired to share. In all reality, I usually suggest for everyone to bring something that they would like to eat just in case no one else brings something they would like to eat. I have experienced Potlucks as something that not only nourishes our bodies but also nourishes our soul. So please come out and share some food, get to know your brothers and sisters in Christ. One thing I can say for sure, many are strangers when they arrive but after our time together we leave as family all because of gathering together at the potluck table. The temperature should be in the mid 50’s so dress accordingly. ALL ages are encouraged to come. Looking forward to seeing you there.
