Upcoming Events for 5-14-18 thru 5-20-18

Looking toward Sunday… Who do you keep in your prayers? For whom do you pray daily? This Sunday we finish our time in John’s gospel. We are still looking into the conversation Jesus has with his disciples on the eve of the last night of his life. Preparing them for what is next after he is gone, he ends this discussion with a prayer. John 17:6-19 Come Sunday, and hear The Other Lord’s Prayer. THE WEEK AHEAD Monday, May 14…

Post with Multiple Pages

This post is broken into three pages. See page navigation below content. In principio creavit Deus caelum et terram. Propterea sicut per unum hominem in hunc mundum peccatum intravit et per peccatum mors et ita in omnes homines mors pertransiit in quo omnes peccaverunt. Sic enim dilexit Deus mundum ut Filium suum unigenitum daret ut omnis qui credit in eum non pereat sed habeat vitam aeternam.

Upcoming Events for 5-7-18 thru 5-13-18

Looking toward Sunday… I saw this bumper sticker recently… And I thought, “Really? Is it really that simple? Because we as a people seem to do this poorly. Myself included.” Sunday, we continue in John’s Gospel 15: 9-17. It’s a continuation of the passage we read last week. This is a snippet of a large conversation Jesus has with his disciples before he leaves. He tells them, “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved…

In principio creavit Deus caelum et terram. Propterea sicut per unum hominem in hunc mundum peccatum intravit et per peccatum mors et ita in omnes homines mors pertransiit in quo omnes peccaverunt. Example Heading Let’s imagine this post’s text wrapped around an image with a caption. Let’s test an example link. Omnis enim quicumque invocaverit nomen Domini salvus erit.

Upcoming Events for 4-23-18 thru 4-29-18

Looking toward Sunday… In what ways do you feel insecure? Fill in the blank, “Am I _______ enough?” Our culture seems to celebrate shaming and criticizing so much that it is easy to lose our sense of confidence and self-worth. This Sunday, we continue in our Life Resurrected Series, celebrating all the ways in which resurrection is possible in our lives. Many of us are in need of rising up from that which holds us down. Hopelessness, doubt… April 22…

Upcoming Events for 4-16-18 thru 4-22-18

Looking toward Sunday… Although Easter baskets have long been put away, Easter is a season we are still celebrating in worship! The promise of the resurrection reminds us that even in the most difficult of times, God’s love and grace shows up, guiding us into a new, and mostly unimaginable, kind of life… Last week, as we read about Doubting Thomas, I asked you to write down the doubts and questions you wrestle with in your own faith and life.…

Upcoming Events for 4-9-18 thru 4-15-18

What a glorious Easter Sunday we shared! Thank you to those who put up the Magnificent Cross of Lilies! This Sunday we continue in the season of Easter. Easter Season is a time of celebrating all the ways in which resurrection is possible in our lives. What holds us back from the joy of life? What binds us, keeping us from the fullness of who God created us to be? What keeps us down? We will explore John 20: 19-31.…

Upcoming Events for 4-2-18 thru 4-8-18

Looking toward Easter Sunday… I am so excited to hear your jokes that you will bring Sunday morning, and I am eager to see the magnificent cross of Lilies in the sanctuary! Then, on Sunday morning, we will celebrate and laugh…that death does not have the final word. PLEASE bring flowers to place at the resurrection cross on the front lawn. We extend sympathy to Valerie Price and family for the loss of Joyce Price. Please be in prayer for…
