Fifth Sunday after Pentecost Pastor Mark H. Larson, preaching

The theme of the Day: The welcome of baptism is for all God’s children. This baptismal gift sets us free from the power of sin and death. In today’s gospel, Christ promises that the disciple who gives a cup of cold water to the little ones serves Christ himself. From worship we are sent on our baptismal mission: to serve the little ones of this world and to be a sign of God’s merciful welcome.

Personnel Update: Bob Boyd, Director of Operations and Finance will no longer be on staff effective June 30, 2023 We thank him for his service and wish him all the best in the future Pr Mark will be assuming his responsibilities during this interim time.

Calendar: The church office will be closed Monday, July 3 & 4.
