You Are Made For Glory

Made for Glory by Vicki Kemper | published on Jun 11, 2022 When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars that you have established; what are human beings that you are mindful of them, mortals that you care for them? Yet you have made them a little lower than God, and crowned them with glory and honor. – Psalm 8:3-5 (NRSV) However you’re feeling today—hopeful or despairing, powerless or inspired, lonely or madly in love—there’s something the psalmist wants you to know. Whatever you’re doing today—marching for an end to gun violence, taking your kids to soccer practice, working a second job to make ends meet, or doing laundry and cleaning house—there’s something I want you to know. You were made for glory. Pleasant Hill Community Church, United Church of Christ, located at 67 Church Drive, Pleasant Hill, TN.

Something Borrowed

This wedding dress was borrowed from The Grab and will be worn in the bride's June wedding. Her mother was shopping the Grab for wedding shoes, as the Grab often has dresses and shoes suitable for the mother of the bride. As they were looking at shoes, the mother learned that a wedding dress had been donated to the Grab a couple of years ago. The bride who donated the gown felt it was a true gift to donate the gown for another bride borrow and use on her special day. The bride's mother took it home for the bride to try on and, as you can see, it fits perfectly. This bride will borrow the gown, have it cleaned and returned to the Grab for yet another bride to borrow. Now she just needs to find something blue. The Grab is at 9547 Sparta Rd., Pleasant Hill and is open Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9AM to 3PM and Saturdays from 9AM to 1PM.
