Ecumenical Sunday

We've just completed another of our annual Ecumenical Sunday services at the First Baptist Church of Palo.  What this service entails is primarily a visit from the King B9's choir (that Nicole and I sing with on Sunday night) from the Cathedral of St. Andrew (in Grand Rapids, under Tom Good's direction).  The choir sings several songs of course, but the purpose of the service is to foster fellowship between these two groups that might not otherwise have any interaction.  It may be a small step in the direction of inter-church cooperation and worship, but it is one we're glad to be part of.
There are many churches, but there is only one Church.  All those who follow Jesus Christ belong to his Church; we're just keeping the pews warm, he owns the place.
