Mid-Week Pause Service, March, 30, 2022

Bring your Hopes, Bring your Doubts, Feed your Soul.

Pause Worship Video is posted below.

Service

The Northern Vicar (pastoral notes from the intersection of Northern Exposure and The Vicar of Dibley)  

First off, welcome our new email subscribers! Second, I hope, for those of you who subscribe to the Star Tribune,
that the giant picture of me riding my bike in the Variety section did not mess with your morning. Third, as a follow-up to
last week – the conversation with Cathy Wurzer on Friday went well.

How are people responding to this exposure of Judson Church? One, I received an email from someone who works with
placemaking and neighborhoods and wants to partner with Judson. Two, a neighborhood couple wants to explore Sunday
bike repairs at Judson. Three, the accordion band that played at our Open Streets booth contacted and wants to play again.
Four, a representative from the E-Bike Challenge at the Minneapolis Convention Center this weekend wrote and asked if
I wanted to come and have a table to talk about Judson!  

And what to make of this exposure? I say we run with it, leverage it, and make new relationships with as many people
as possible. How about we live into our invitation: Bring Your Hopes, Bring Your Doubts, Feed Your Soul. How about we
respond with our three core values: Relational, Creative, and Inclusive. We have everything we need for this moment; just lean into it.  

Peace,  
Travis
