This Sunday Pastor Jenny will offer her final message as she prepares to begin Sabbatical leave. Her message will encourage us to claim "Holy Ground" as we work and play this summer. We will consider how we can stop, look, and listen for the Lord's movement so that our next steps will be in God's direction. Our summer campers will share a bit of their experience at each service.

We have spent this last program year walking through the Bible, taking a new book each week (with a few breaks for holidays) and this Sunday we have finally reached The Book of Revelation! This final book in the Christian Bible is full of some of the most incredible imagery in the whole canon - God and angels in heaven, a war against the Great Dragon and his forces, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and the New Heaven & New Earth being made for us to live in for eternity. But Revelation is as mysterious as its imagery is compelling. So, how do we make sense of this scriptural book? And what does all of this talk of angels & demons, dragons & horsemen mean for us today?

Today, we celebrate the Ascension of Christ - the completion of Christ's earthly ministry when his resurrected body was brought up into heaven and his disciples began to prepare for Pentecost when they would become Christ's body on earth. But more than just one event in the life of Christ, the Ascension marks a turning point in the history of the universe, as a human being now sits on the throne of God!

This Sunday we celebrate the God who invites us to be HIS PEOPLE. We join our confirmation class in saying, "Yes," to an identity that is built upon Jesus, our rock solid foundation. We consider how we can "be holy" as St. Peter instructs us. As God's people we should stand out in ways that glorify the God who claims us.

Paul set us free from the bondage-mindset that we can earn salvation through the works of the Law of Moses; we are saved by Faith! But James reminds us, we are not saved by faith alone. Our faith is “brought to completion” in our works and in our priorities.

On Easter morning, Christ was raised from the dead. This week, as we continue the Church's 50-day celebration of Christ's Resurrection, we give thanks to God that we don't have to wait until Judgment Day to live as a resurrection people; we begin our resurrected life in spirit now! This Sunday's sermon will consider what it means to live as a resurrection people in this life.
