“No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” (John 15:13, NRSV)

In the U.S., we observe Memorial Day, which is a day of solemn remembrance of those who laid down their lives in service to this nation. As followers of Jesus, we honor their sacrifice, acknowledging the deep grief that endures in the hearts of families and friends, and give thanks for the costly gift of their service.

Today we invite you to pause in prayer: for comfort and hope for the bereaved, for healing for those still bearing wounds of war, and for God’s justice and peace to prevail throughout the world. 🙏

"When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting." (Acts 2:1-2, NRSV)

Today churches remember and celebrate Pentecost, commemorating the day the promise was fulfilled in sending the Advocate or Helper. It reminds us that, with the Holy Spirit, amazing occurrences take place. Imagine being there, feeling the Spirit, being given the power to speak another language and communicate with others from all over. This showing of God's power is an example of the power that can fill us to do great things in His name.

🙏 Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit. Fill us so that we may faithfully serve You and boldly share the hope of Jesus Christ. Amen.

We’re growing faster than a crawfish hole here at LFMC that we now offer children’s church during our 11AM service! Please be patient with us as we make room by changing our nursery location to renovate our previous spaces, and to fit the growing attendance of our little ones while the renovations are underway! We hope to be completed with this project by the start of the new school year. In the meantime, come see why we’re “digging” Jesus here at 11AM!

This share is a good invite to all who want to make a joyful noise to the Lord! Choir practice is today at 5pm in the fellowship hall!

The God of the universe delights in His people and rejoices over them with singing.

Zephaniah 3:17 says "The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.”
