Yesterday afternoon I drove up through the Blues in Northeast Oregon to Kennewick. Thanks to Heidi and Dan Cryer for their always warm hospitality.

This morning I drove to Our Saviour Lutheran in Sunnyside, WA. This congregation has been sharing their pastor, Tim Carnahan, with Faith Lutheran in Toppenish. As Faith has sold its building and is closing, Our Saviour is entering a season of transition, wondering what is next.

The sanctuary we worshipped in was built in 2000. I love the cross formed by the lovely stained glass windows.

The church has both a food pantry and free library. So many monetary donations have come in for the food pantry in the last few years that the church just bought a freezer to enhance its feeding ministry.

It was a good morning in Sunnyside.
