Worship on January 29
10 AM, Sunday morning—We come to worship our holy God—Father, Son, and Spirit. As we continue a four-week series on faith formation, we look again at the sacrament of baptism as the sign of God's love and grace for his covenant children. The story of the flood in Genesis 3 reveals to us God's wrath and judgment, but it is the sign of the rainbow and God's promises to Noah and all creation that bear so much importance for us today. In baptism we share in Christ's sacrifice on the cross, we are recreated through his Spirit, and we go to God's world bearing that sign for all to see God's love and grace. Through confession and renewal, music and dance, prayer and offering, we celebrate that love and grace together in our worship.
You are encouraged to add your name and baptism date to our “Baptism Celebration Wall” in the Fellowship Room, if you have not already done so.
5:00 PM, Sunday evening—Join us for worship as we study 1 Corinthians 12. In this familiar passage about the church as the Body of Christ, we take special note that it is baptism and the Spirit which unite us into that body. We belong even though we are not all alike. And it is our diversity which allows us to function as the full body.
The offering will be for Calvinist Cadet Corps, which provides a complete program of Bible study, activities, and recreation for young boys.
