A message from Pastor Jeff:
This week, in the last of our more casual "summer camp" style worship services for the year, we'll take on another passage from the Book of Romans in the second of our two-sermon mini-series on this letter from the Apostle Paul and it's impact on our modern faith. In our text (which is Romans 13:8-14 if you want to read ahead), we encounter Paul's understanding of the Great Commandment (or, as I like to call it, "The Big Three:" Love God, Love Neighbor, Love Self). No surprise, right? Perhaps, but then we remember that Paul was writing fifteen or more years before the Gospel of Mark would first put the Great Commandment on Jesus' lips. Romans is a complicated text, but it reveals much to us about the transcendent truth of God's love, and the ways that such love manifests in us. Join us as we continue to wrestle with all of it.

Mark your calendars for our joyous return to the Sanctuary for Catch the Spirit Sunday, next Sunday, September 13. The church is alive with the final sounds of construction, the joyous sounds of music, and the electric energy that backstops our preparation for the start of the program year. I'm so excited to be part of it! I hope you'll be part of it, too.

Join us this Sunday, and every Sunday, at 10:00 am, live at the church or on-line on Facebook and YouTube.

A message from Pastor Jeff:
This Sunday, the lectionary brings us to the midpoint of narrative arc of the Gospel of Matthew. Up until now, we've been learning about Jesus' ministry and how Matthew sees it as the fulfillment of Hebrew prophesy. In today's text, Jesus does a "check-in" of sorts. He asks his disciples who the crowds think he is. He's checking in to see if it's working. After hearing that answer, Jesus asks another: "Who do YOU say I am?" Simon Peter, speaking for the other disciples, has an answer that I suspect most of you know...they know that Jesus is the Messiah, the Christ, the Anointed One.
This week, I want to put Jesus' question to us who are his twenty-first century disciples: Who do WE say HE is? To help us contemplate that answer, we'll be worshipping and sharing a meal with some of the folks that our missioners served during Wallingford Workcamp and also hearing about the experience from some of the missioners themselves. It the midst of all of that, I think we'll find a modern answer to Jesus' question.

I hope you'll join us Sunday at 10:00 am, live at the church or on-line on Facebook and YouTube.
