Week of Sunday, October 29
Reformation Sunday
On this day we celebrate the heart of our faith: the gospel of Christ—the good news—that makes us free! We pray that the Holy Spirit would continue to unite the church today in its proclamation and witness to the world. In the waters of baptism we are made one body; we pray for the day that all Christians will also be one at the Lord’s table.
For the 500th Anniversary of the Reformation we will have a traditional reenactment of the nailing of the 95 Thesis to the Wittenberg Chapel Door, and will share some of the Thesis in worship. Kyle Cruz will be sharing her faith story, and the band will play Mighty Fortress. Be there!
