Verse of the Day~

Then he said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “The Messiah of God.” (Luke 9:20)

Prayer~

Jesus, It’s just too easy in our muddled, wayward hearts to forget who You are. You are the Lord of the universe and our lives. You are the Savior of all. Let us cling to this truth always and never be ashamed. In Your name. Amen.

Meeting Jesus ~ 

It’s Pentecost Sunday this Sunday, June 8, as we celebrate the arrival of the Holy Spirit and the birth of the Church. We welcome soprano Kathryn Gates for special music.  Don’t forget to wear red!

Meeting Friends ~ 

Our summer worship series, Summer Mixtape, takes us through the epistles (letters) of the New Testament as we hear what Paul and others had to say to the various churches. If you’re unfamiliar with the New Testament letters–or just need a refresher course–stay after worship this Sunday, June 8, in the sanctuary for a quick, fun review.

Sharing Hope ~ 

Our own Bethany Bender is the new International Relations Coordinator at Otero College, and she’s looking for Friendly Families. These are families, couples, and individuals who build a special relationship with one of the roughly 50 international students arriving this fall.  What a great way to share Jesus’ love (with our actions, out loud, or both!) with young adults far from home.  Contact Bethany at bethany.bender@otero.edu if you’re interested.
