Continuing the sermon series “Costumes, Alligators, and the Power of God’s Weakness,” Rev. John Hall will pick up on Ruth LeBar’s sermon about anger last Sunday, as we consider the next section of Jesus’ “Sermon on the Mount.” Jesus said, “love your enemies” and “pray for those who persecute you.”
Children’s Program — Young Peacemakers Club with Julie Hurlburt
Hymns — What A Friend We Have In Jesus; Like a Tree Beside the Waters; Renew the Church. Anthem by Senior Choir — In God's Word Will I Rejoice (Purcell; J.H. Fowler, ed.)
2nd Hour — Mindfulness: A Talk by Karl Scheibe
Never has there been greater competition for our attention than in these days. The Internet provides unlimited access to information, and much it of it is of relevance to us. The crises that afflict our society and our planet (and our church) are real, complex, and need to be taken seriously. Mindfulness is a conception that has grown in popularity recently--in response to the growing difficulties many of us face in controlling our consciousness in a way that gives us peace and clarity. Karl Scheibe will help us explore this topic.
