     February is associated with love because of Valentine’s Day. That day is a celebration of romantic love. There are also other expressions of love besides romantic feelings. 
     The Bible speaks about different aspects of love. It does contain passages about romantic love. Have you ever read the Song of Solomon? There are also Scriptures which tell us about the love friends have for one another, such as the relationship between David and Jonathan. Jesus and the Apostle Paul spoke about agape love which involves choices to act lovingly toward others, including those with whom we disagree. Jesus said we are to love even our own enemies.
     As our church family continues the discernment process this month, let us practice agape love toward one another. On Monday, February 6 at 6:ooPM we will have our second listening session in the fellowship hall. Two pastors will make presentations. They will each share for about 15 minutes. One will offer reasons churches should consider disaffiliating from the United Methodist Church and the other will articulate why he believes churches should remain in the UMC. After they speak there will be an opportunity to ask them questions and for our members to share their opinions. This will be a very important session to view the issue from different perspectives. Keep on praying for discernment and loving one another.
