This Sunday's Service
The man known as Saul,
later to become Paul, figures greatly in the history and development of
Christianity, sometimes perhaps not in a very positive light. Many of Paul's
writings have been taken out of context and used to form rigid doctrinal
understandings of Christianity, far from the original teachings of Jesus.
However, one of the taken for granted, and so overlooked parts of Paul's life is
his conversion experience on the road to Damascus. This facet of the Apostle's
life lifts up one of the truly mystical and spiritual aspects of who Paul was
and can point us on a fruitful journey within our own lives. Join us for worship
as we journey down the "Long and Winding Road". The scripture reading is Acts
9:1-20.
This Sunday there will be
special music featuring choir member Brian Kosior. He will sing My God is
Real arranged by Kinley Lange and Easter! from Five Mystical
Songs by Ralph Vaughan Williams. Guest organist, Alice Hopkins, will play
Morning Has Broken arranged by Diane Bish, and Jubilation by
Gordon Young. The congregational hymns will be I Look to You in Every
Need (O JESU), Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty
(NICEA), and Joy Dawned Again on Easter Day (PUER NOBIS
NASCITUR).
