Rooted, Growing, and Branching Out in God's Love

Sunday Worship-Virtual Service-May 9, 2021

Dear St. John’s friends and family,

I want to extend a big thank you to Rev. Cindy Riddick and St. John’s lay leader, Gary Scoggin for preparing and leading the message while I was quarantined with my family. We are all well and celebrate being back into community!

Today we will take a closer look at our spiritual roots. This is the most important part of the tree. And this is where we will take a closer look at the most important part of our spiritual life and faith. The Apostle Paul encourages us to be rooted in God’s love. What does this mean and how do we accomplish this?  That is the discovery we will be on in the coming weeks. So, let the journey begin!

As we open ourselves to God’s presence, we prepare our hearts and minds to be changed. We cannot help but be changed when we are in God’s presence. God is worthy of our trust. And God can be trusted above any other. So, why not surrender to God’s presence and let God in?  Come on!  What are you waiting for?  Let’s encounter God together in worship and adoration!

Grace and Peace,
Pastor Stephanie
