Welcome to Our Worship: All the baptized have a calling in God’s world. God calls not just pastors and deacons but also the youngest child, like Samuel. The story of the calling of Nathanael plays with the idea of place. Nathanael initially dismisses Jesus because he comes from Nazareth. But where we come from isn’t important; it’s where — or rather whom — we come to. Jesus refers to Jacob, who had a vision in a place he called “the house of God, and…the gate of heaven” (Gen. 28:17). Jesus says he himself is the place where Nathanael will meet God.
Worship and Communion: In God's Boundless Diversity, we are made in God's image! If you are visiting or new to our faith family, please fill out a yellow guest card and put it in the offering plate so we have a record of your visit. Come back and worship with us each Sunday at 10 a.m. Those worshiping today may come forward for the sacraments or, cross your arms across your chest for a blessing instead. This is Christ’s table where all are welcome, as Christ welcomes all.
Fellowship: Please join us after worship today in the Fellowship Hall for coffee and conversation.
