This Sunday
June 28, 2026
Greetings Friends in Christ,
Grace and peace to you in the name of Jesus. This Sunday, we are blessed to welcome back our guest preacher, Rev. Mary Elyn Bahlert to the pulpit as she shares a message titled, "Instructions for a Life of Faith" rooted in 1 Peter 1: 13-21 RSV.
Rev. Mary Elyn’s message speaks to us that sometimes we need good, clear instructions in order to live our lives in faith. Like the people to whom St. Peter preached the Good News, we are waiting for the word that will touch our hearts and inspire our lives. Rev. Mary Elyn will guide us to reflect on the words of faith we carry with us and how God speaks into our lives, even in moments of waiting and uncertainty.
As we continue to explore what it means to be formed as a family of faith and prepared as a people for God's purposes, we are reminded that God's word has the power to transform us, encourage us, and send us forth with hope.
I invite you to join our community this Sunday with expectant hearts, ready to hear God's word of hope and inspiration for our lives.
All are welcome. We look forward to worshiping with you!
Grace and peace,
Pastor Akesa
