THIS WEDNESDAY, NOV. 26
Worship at 7:00 p.m. in Trinity Sanctuary
with
“pie potluck” following the service
(We welcome pie donations.)
TODAY THE GOSPEL TEXT from Matthew 25:31-36
contains the verse “when I was in prison you visited me.” Our
synodical mission, Living Stones Prison Congregation, presents a
unique opportunity to fulfill the wishes expressed by God in this
passage to visit those who are incarcerated. Many who visit Living
Stones become more energized to do God’s work to serve a world
who cries out in need of God’s love. Watch a documentary here:
