From the desk of Vicar Katie
Holy Trinity - it is a doctrine but its more than that...its a flow of love and energy through relationship. Our connectedness as the body of Christ is a channel through which that flow happens.

What opportunities are you taking to have that flow of love poured into you so that you can then pour out love and grace to our neighbors?

THANK YOU to Daniel Doty for putting this together. Thank you to Leslie and Daniel Doty for spending the week with our 9 campers. Thank you, Congregation for supporting them in prayer and finance to get them there!

Scripture Readings
This Sunday’s texts paint startling pictures of the horrific—the demonic—nature of sin. The church’s repeated celebration of the holy communion counters that tragic reality in a continued showing forth of the death of Jesus “until he comes.” It is a dramatic declaration of “how much God has done for you.”
Isaiah 65:1-9
The prophet sent to a rebellious people
The prophet announces God’s impatience. The people’s self absorption is idolatry, and images from pagan worship fill this reading. Like a vintner who crushes the grape to release the wine, God will use Israel’s exile to establish a new community of the faithful.
Psalm 22:19-28
In the midst of the assembly I will praise you.
Galatians 3:23-29
In baptism, clothed with Christ; no longer Jew or Greek
For Paul, baptism is a powerful bond that unites people not only with God but with other believers. Those who call themselves children of God experience a transformation that removes prejudices of race, social class, or gender in favor of true unity in Christ.
Luke 8:26-39
Jesus casts out demons possessing a man of the Gerasenes
Jesus’ mission includes foreigners, and his authority extends to the casting out of demons. Some who witness Jesus’ work are seized with confusion and fear, but the man who was healed is commissioned to give testimony of God’s mercy and power.
