July 5: Sixth Sunday after Pentecost
Read Psalm 145
In this acrostic poem, each verse begins with the next letter of the Hebrew alphabet and praises God for what God has done. By yourself or with a friend, write the letters of our alphabet down a piece of paper. For each letter, write something that begins with that letter for which you would praise God.
Worship -July 5 at 10:00 am
We welcome you to in-person or online worship services in the Sanctuary on Sunday, July 5, 2026 at 10:00 am. Elder Ken Schmidt will be at the pulpit this Sunday. The Sermon is “ Spiritual Fruits ".
PRAYER FOR ILLUMINATION
Your Word sheds light upon our way, brings healing into our souls, and gives purpose to our lives. Open our hearts and minds to hear what your Spirit is saying to us today. Amen.
SCRIPTURE Galatians 5: 16-25
Live by the Spirit, I say, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh. For what the flesh desires is opposed to the Spirit, and what the Spirit desires is opposed to the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you want. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not subject to the law. Now the works of the flesh are obvious: formication, impurity, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, anger, quarrels, dissensions, factions, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these. I am warning you, as I warned you before: those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit.
THE WORD OF THE LORD!
Thanks be to God!
