On Sunday Jeff made breakfast for us. Then we went and get coffee and walked around the U of M campus. It was a beautiful morning. Here are some pictures we took:

We then went to church. The sermon was on spiritual gifts. I have heard several sermons before on spiritual gifts and I usually don’t like them because I feel like they make it sound like if you are using your spiritual gifts then you are going to be 100% happy all the time doing your work when in reality I think everyone has grunt work that you have to just buckle down and get it done (just not the majority of your work should feel like pulling teeth). I liked this sermon because it gave me some background into the passage that I didn’t know before. Such as at that time the gift of tongues was elevated above the others so the passage is really trying to show the “unity and diversity” of spiritual gifts--- We are all given different gifts and all the gifts are valued the same. He also focused on how the church needs the diversity of gifts and talents and compares it to the Trinity.

After church we took a Frisbee to the park and played catch. Then we were a little hot and the river looked so clean and enticing that we waded up the stream. It was never much higher than our knees. It felt nice. We went back and had some salmon from lunch and then went over to play some Ultimate Frisbee with some church friends. It was a relaxing Sunday.
