Sunday, October 3: World Communion
9:00 a.m. Contemporary Worship
10:45 a.m. Traditional Worship
Scripture Matthew 5:1-6
Sermon Blessed are those who Hunger and Thirst for Righteousness
The fourth in our fall sermon series on the Beatitudes, about the unexpected grace that arises in severe and challenging circumstances. Why would those with an unquenched longing for what is right and good find themselves blessed? We ask this question on a day when we remember—and celebrate—our place what the old hymn called “my Father’s world.”
World Communion Sunday when we join people of faith from around the planet to share the bread of life. Those worshiping at home should prepare their own bread and wine/juice/water.
A worship bulletin will be emailed before the service.
To worship online live every Sunday at 9:00 and 10:45 or recorded: go to www.Christ-Pres.Church, click Watch Worship, then click the service you would like to attend.
