Dear Friends,
We have a special presentation this coming Sunday from Circle of Freedom in Seymour. Kim Crawford, the director, will be bringing some of the students to both services. There are sure to be some amazing stories of how Jesus' love has transformed lives. God is so good to ALL of his children. See you Sunday!

"For All the Saints"
by Pastor Diane Olson-Schroeder
Psalm 34: 1-10, 22 (David is grateful. He has found a hiding place, a cave. It provides protection from his enemies. But, David is hungry and friendless, except for God.)
& Revelation 7: 9-17 (John, one of the disciples, has a vision of heaven before dying in exile.)
Psalm 34: 22
The Lord will rescue his servants;
no one who takes refuge in him will be condemned.
Do you want to know God?
Do you want to serve Him–to do what is right?
Then join other saints (simple people like you who are not and cannot be perfect):
-
Endure. (Be patient and self-controlled.)
-
Be upright. (Be faithful to God and confident in his faithfulness to you.)
-
Be passionate. (Learn what good works God wants you to do for others.)
-
Be compassionate. (Apply God’s lessons, teaching others what you have learned about God’s plan for his saints.)
Revelation 7: 17 (an elder in John’s vision speaks to John)
“For the Lamb at the center of the throne
will be their shepherd;
he will lead them to springs of living water.
And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
A VICTORY FOR ALL THE SAINTS!!!
COME!!!
WORSHIP!!!
From Today’s Litany of Remembrance:
We are God’s children. Today and every day, may we put on Christ and live as saints who tend the poor, comfort the mourners, learn from the meek, affirm those who seek righteousness, offer mercy alongside the merciful, and work for peace with the peacemakers until Christ comes in final victory and we feast as the family of God at his heavenly banquet. Amen.
Today’s Call to Worship:
I looked over Jordan, that river we all will eventually cross.
O Lord, what a vision.
I could see the saints singing and dancing. I saw Grandpa fishing in the Crystal Sea. I heard Grandma humming in the kitchen…
O Lord, what a vision.
Countless others were there, all faithful disciples, gathered in worship. That young woman who sang with so much energy, that young man whose life was cut short in that accident…
O Lord, what a vision.
But the most amazing thing I saw as I looked over Jordan…
Yes? Yes?
….was the man standing in the shallows, smiling, his arms reaching out, saying,
“Welcome home.”
