Pastor Gail Whitcome Linstrom welcomes all to worship and to participate in the life of our church family. Dale Reynolds calls us to worship with a responsive reading based on Psalms 95 and 100 with Pastor Gail leading the congregational response. Guest music director Nicolas Baltazar, accompanied by Mike Minasyan lead us in praise and worship music. Andrew Mumm then takes up the concerns of the church and our world in the Prayers of the People. Pastor Daniel Whipple, of Rose City Church, considers Jesus’ claim that he and the Father are one, from John 10:22 – 30, in his sermon, “The Certainty of Christ.” He reminds us that we need to decide to accept this claim or reject Jesus as a madman. Jesus being God is good news, since his actions shows who God is – healing, accepting, full of grace, forgiving, loving, and even willing to die for us. A God that knows what it is like to be human. Pastor Gail then leads us in Communion, so you are invited to have bread or crackers and a beverage ready to participate in this sacrament.
