Greetings on this Fourth Sunday after Pentecost

              8:30 am Holy Communion

            10:00 am Holy Eucharist

The Gospel passage from Matthew, Chapter 10, Verses 24-39, challenges believers to consider the cost and rewards of discipleship.  Rev. John encourages you to prayerfully read this challenging passage.  How does it inform the way in which we approach commitment, courage and faithfulness?

To view readings for this week and the entire year, please use this link to the common lectionary.  https://lectionary.library.vanderbilt.edu/ (You might have to select the correct Sunday).

The Hymns for this Sunday are printed below.  Please google to go over ahead of time.
