Name: Pickled Garlic - Grayiem Dong
Ingredients: 10 Heads Fresh Garlic, Unpeeled; 1/2 c White Vinegar; 3/4 c Sugar; 1 tb Salt

John reminded the persecuted church in Revelation about the true God “who is and who was and who is to come” (Rev. 1:4). Is there anything greater that we can contemplate than that understanding that God is eternal when facing tribulation? The agony of persecution, the cultural opinions of the day, the world leaders on the scene, all loom so large when the pressure is on us until we take a step back and realize how temporary it all is in the grand scheme of eternity. All of that comes and all of it will go. God and His truth remains – He was and He is and He always will be. The momentary frown of the world can’t replace the eternal smile from God. May we go through life keeping our eyes on Him and our minds heavenward and not on the passing trends and transient existence of this life.

INGREDIENTS

10		Heads Fresh Garlic, Unpeeled
1/2	c	White Vinegar
3/4	c	Sugar
1	tb	Salt

INSTRUCTIONS

Wash the garlic heads in cool water.  Trim the stem end without cutting
into the cloves and set aside. Combine the vinegar, sugar and salt in a
small saucepan and bring to a rolling boil. Stir and boil for 1 minute.
When the sugar and salt are dissolved, reduce the heat and simmer gently
until slightly thickened, about 5minutes. Remove from the heat and cool to
room temperature.  Place the garlic in a jar or crock with a tight fitting
lid and pour in the pickling brine to immerse the garlic completely. Seal
tightly and store in a cool, dark place for 2 to 3 weeks before using.
Makes about 1 quart.

A Message from our Provider:

“Jesus: more relevant than we could ever comprehend”

Being unified in a church means: We know the difference between enjoying our small group, but understanding that the church is one – not separated along the lines of many small groups. Between having personal priorities within the church, but not losing the one core overarching mission of the church. Between respecting politics, but not making the church political. Between having good friends, but not forming alliances in the church to the exclusion of others. Between having differing beliefs, but honoring the church’s doctrinal statement. Between having personal convictions, but not legalistically pressing them upon others. That’s how we stand together as one for the Gospel.
