Sabbath Keeping

First Sunday in Advent I found worship at El Pueblito Methodist Church just north of Taos. It is the custom in the Methodist church to offer Holy Communion on the first Sunday of each month.

This being the first Sunday, I was front and center to pull off a piece from the extended loaf. To feed my soul.

The outreach ministry of this parish is to feed the hungry in the Taos area. They call it Shared Table. Last week alone, they fed 446 adults, 171 children, and 32 infants. Shared Table is on my gift-giving list.

My Advent reading for today tells me that those who work in soup kitchens and food pantries are in the "Holy of Holies". Indeed.

After church it was time for my daily meal of blue corn cheese enchiladas. Afterwards we walked the labyrinth at the First Presbyterian church. I have a definite rhythm here. Labyrinths and blue corn enchiladas.

  1. Yet another day of being quiet, walking, eating well, and giving. Can't get much better than that. You're very blessed.
