The Little Engine that Could
Rev. Dr. Carolyn Scanlan-Holmes • August 22, 2023
When Our Intentions Align with Faith
This Sunday, we celebrate the completion of the midsummer Wade in the Water campaign. As we continue our contemplation of children’s literature, I cannot help but think today about the Little Engine that Could. For over 100 years, this book has provided inspiration and a reminder of the power of intention. When our intentions align with our faith, God can do amazing things through us. We know that with God all things are possible. On Sunday, we reconnect with the "can do" Spirit and celebrate God at work in this world.
