JUNE 7 - HOLY TRINITY SUNDAY

The best bread...
I think the best bread is homemade bread. There is something amazing about the warmth. And, truthfully, something amazing about how few ingredients are needed! Yet, after mixing the ingredients, could you imagine removing one of them? How! Or, if you removed one of the ingredients it wouldn't taste, or maybe even look, like bread.
Trinity Sunday can't be simplified to a loaf of homemade bread, but God as 3 and 1 at the same time is something amazing and continues to fill us and all creation with wonder. This Sunday, we praise God for being God...one forever mixed up in relationship with self...and with us fickle and fumbling humans. How great is our God, who loves us beyond measure, who has given us life, and who sends us out to be bread for the world, yes...homemade bread for the world...warm with the grace and love of God.
Peace,
PV

Martin Luther argued that “the ears are the only organs of a Christian,” since it is through the ear that life begins, through hearing the preached Word of God.
Read scripture from YOUR Bible at home. Remember the story of who gave you or how you got your Bible. May this story remind you of your connection to Christ & others.

REMEMBERING OUR COMMUNION
|
|
One thing that many miss is sharing in Holy Communion.
This time invites us to turn our question from, "How do we receive Holy Communion?” to “How does the Word of God come to us and how do we receive the Word of God?
|
|
Prayer is central to the life of faith because it connects us to God and each other, a reminder that we are never socially distanced in Christ. Please say these names aloud as a way of lifting them up to God this day. Names in
bold
were added this past week. You are welcome in this time of prayer to include your own joys and concerns.

OFFERINGS AND GIFTS TO GOD
|

Thank you for your continued generosity toward our operating budget during this time.
Stewardship quote for the week:
"Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not."
-Dr. Seuss, The Lorax
If you’re not using electronic giving, you can still mail your offering to the church at 1803 Highway 1431 West, Marble Falls, TX 78654
. And if you’re not already a sustaining member of our ministry through our Consecration Sunday process, this is a great time to ask the question, "What % of my income is God calling me to give?" Even a commitment of $5 or $10 a week can make a huge difference in our community.
or to set up a reoccurring offering.
Or, simply text the amount
you want to give to 830-460-5757.
