I have literally tasted spiritual joy at Lowville United Church during Sunday Coffee and Fellowship. It’s not just the great sandwiches, treats, tea and coffee. The spiritual joy flows as people move from table to table and check in with each other. Stories are shared, burdens become lighter, smiles and hugs are exchanged. It also extends into the rest of the week, as one church friend phones another.  Church friends go out together, enjoy simple pleasures like a fun game or shopping at a favourite store. People give each other rides so that two friends can come to church!

The preaching and worship is good, but the love and caring, after the service is where Jesus really transforms lives, changing the ordinary into something sweet and spirit-filled. The love of Jesus is so very evident.

Join us on Sunday September 13th, for worship in our sanctuary at 10:30 am. We will be exploring and experiencing Spiritual Joy! We are calling it Welcome Back Sundae! We will be having sandwiches, delicious veggie squares and sundaes. Join us for worship and experience Jesus who is our spiritual joy!

It would be a wonderful opportunity to invite a friend to Lowville UC! The joy we embody is truly extraordinary in today’s world. Love is a beautiful thing! The world needs more of this brand of joy!
