Sunday, May 14, 2017 Fifth Sunday of Easter 11 a.m. Worship Service As we continue to celebrate the fifty days of Easter, today's gospel includes Jesus' promise that he goes to prepare a place for his followers in his Father's house. Our baptism commissions us to share Jesus' mission in the world. As First Peter reminds us, we are a holy people, called to proclaim the one who called us out of darkness into light. In words and deeds we bear witness to the risen Christ-our way, our truth, our life.
Readings:
Acts 7:55-60 Psalm 31:1-5, 15-16 1 Peter 2:2-10 John 14:1-14
Sunday, May 21, 2017 Sixth Sunday of Easter 11 a.m. Worship Service Jesus does not leave his followers orphaned. Through the Holy Spirit Jesus comes to abide with his disciples of every generation. As Pentecost draws near, we are reminded that the risen Christ dwells in us as the Spirit of truth. We receive this Spirit in baptism and pray that in our gathering around the Lord's table the Spirit will transform us to be the body of the risen Christ in the world.
Readings:
Acts 17:22-31 Psalm 66:8-20 1 Peter 3:13-22 John 14:15-21
