Welcome to Worship for this Nineteenth Sunday after Pentecost, October 11th, 2020, as we celebrate Thanksgiving. This was our first Eucharist together, in the church, since March.
We are happy you have joined us, whether you were here in person or continue to join us virtually, YOU ARE WELCOME HERE!
Our readings for today are: Joel 2:21-27; Psalm 65; 1 Timothy 2:1-7; Matthew 6:25-33
All of the Biblical passages help us to express our thanks and praise to God. Joel calls for rejoicing and celebration in view of God’s promises, and that also includes God’s provision of the food we eat. The Psalm is one of thanksgiving as it sings of thanksgiving for the Earth’s bounty. The First Letter of Paul to Timothy calls the Church to offer prayers of thanksgiving for kings and others in high places, in order “that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life”. The Gospel story includes Jesus’ teachings about anxiety for food and clothing.
Please feel free to share the link for this Worship Service, with anyone who may want to worship with us, or with anyone who may be seeking a spiritual home.
