Theme for Today: Authority and obedience

 

Welcome! Those of us who worship and minister in the three churches of The Glen Group pray that your visit will have brought you closer to the God whom we have learned to love and serve. A children’s corner has been set-aside in each of our churches for children to sit and play. At Communion, please bring the children forward for a blessing and a sticker. We invite all who are confirmed or full members of any Christian church to share in Communion.

Reflection on today’s readings

 

Actions speak louder than words.  Today we are going to think about living with integrity as Christians, taking responsibility for our own actions.  We praise God as we remember than Jesus’ own words and actions offer us a model of humble and obedient discipleship.  (From Roots Worship)
