Summer is not stagnant! A lot is happening, or at least should happen that can only happen in the summer. There is a natural rhythm to life and summer is the season of growing. We grow as a church, as a community, and especially as people of faith in the summer of our lives. During the summer we reconnect with what's most important to us, partly because we're able to slow down enough to be what we want to really be. Summer is about vacations with family and friends. Reunions to reconnect with our roots and what we love and who loves us. Summer is about spiritual growth though we might not be able to recognize it. The question is are we ready to grow? Summer moves at a slower pace. It allows us time to reflect and to celebrate all that we are as people of faith and what God is doing in our lives and our family. But if we fail to take the time to understand the change, we fail to become all that God wants for us.

It is never too late to become what we might have been.
