Moving from confirmations to baptisms to an evening celebration service, it has been meaningful to continue marking these pivotal and memorable moments in our pilgrimage. This Sunday we have baptism, which is the sacrament of initiation, a threshold moment when those who are being baptized are immersed into the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We can always look back to this moment to remind ourselves that we have been given a new name through the triune God. Along with that, Chris will connect All Saints Day to these baptisms and the meaning of its significance.

For the last few months we have had a big focus on the Holy Spirit. Sunday's service is to represent the unity of the church, the unity of Christ’s body, and the recognition of the unification that the Holy Spirit brings. Along with saying the creed together we will also, as a body, reaffirm our baptismal vows to recognize that we are all part of the body. The example in Acts 4 shows the value of what happens when the community acts.

This Sunday we will be looking at a different kind of generosity, the kind that Jesus teaches is about in Luke 14. As generosity and hospitality go hand in hand, we learn that when we invite people over it should not be about entertaining them, it should not be about us as the host, but should actually be about listening and serving the guest. What does this mean, then, that "Christ is the host and we are His guests"? And, furthermore, how can we pursue this practically?

Last Sunday we talked about our prayer for this upcoming season together, that "time of refreshing may come" and that dry things may come back to life. Did you experience the physical release of refreshment from the rain yesterday? This Sunday we will be talking about the cloud of witnesses that have gone before us. What does this mean for us to be surrounded by a cloud of witnesses? And furthermore what it means for Jesus to run the race in front of us on our behalf and how we participate in this.
We look forward to seeing you all this week!

This Sunday we are going to be looking at some of Luke's writings in Acts when Peter, who was transformed from a coward to one of the most courageous preachers, invites everyone to repent. Why does he preach that we should repent? Peter says, "so that times of refreshing may come." Whether you are coming out of a season of anxiety and stress or need a literal since of refreshment from this summer heat, we could all use some refreshment.
We look forward to seeing you all this week!

Last Sunday we looked at one of the great passages about prayer where Jesus compares praying to asking, seeking, and knocking. This Sunday we will instead be looking at the question: What does it look like to accept Jesus' invitation, and how does that translate to your prayer life? We will then be talking about what dependence on the Lord looks like and how to balance the natural pull of desiring independence.

This week we will be exploring what Paul means when he writes, "Christ in you, the hope of glory"? What is hope? What is glory? And how does that correlate to the truth that Christ is in us? The mystery of the gospel is working through these people in Colossians in the midst of their community. Paul speaks to the intentionality of choosing to depend on the Lord for strength and furthermore choosing to align your heart to that of the Father.

As we behold the face of God in the face of Christ, we are transformed into his image. This is what it means to be fully human—to become like Jesus, the truly human one, and to grow more and more in the freedom of the children of God.
