Can you imagine being sick all your life? In our Bible story today, we read about sick people waiting by a pool for an angel to come and stir up the water. They believed that when the water was stirred up, the first person to step into the pool would be healed of their sickness. These sick people would wait day after day hoping for the angel to come down so they could be healed. Read the Bible story or watch the video to see what happened.
The Chosen - Jesus heals Paralytic at Pool of Bethesda
The Man Healed by the Pool
John 5:1-9
The Healing at the Pool
5 Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish festivals. 2 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, which in Aramaic is called Bethesda and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades. 3 Here a great number of disabled people used to lie—the blind, the lame, the paralyzed. [4] 5 One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?”
7 “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.”
8 Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” 9 At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked.

On Sunday, May 1st we launched The Blend ‘G’ Project (the G stands for generations). The goal of this project is to create an opportunity for different generations to connect and share insights into their personal faith and life experiences.

This is a pilot project that will begin with pairing 4 youth with 4 adults. We hope to continue the project in the fall with more adults and young people making new and meaningful connections.
Nursery Volunteers Needed
The Children and Youth Ministry is re-opening the Church Nursery. We need volunteers to be in place before we can advertise that we have a “supervised nursery”.
