Welcome to worship this weekend with the Lutheran Church of the Master for the 19th Sunday after Pentecost! We are excited to welcome today, Rev. Dr. John Armstrong who will be our preacher & presider! Let us offer a warm welcome. And as we do we hear from Jesus a saying that makes us uncomfortable with a story we find comforting. Jesus rejects the notions of human institutions and welcomes the child. What does it mean to receive the Kingdom of God as a child does?

I hope you have had the opportunity to download the resources for this Season of The Spirit to prepare your at-home worship spaces or worship in the building. I also hope that your sabbath is fulfilling, as today promises to be an inspiring morning. For our liturgy today, I invite you to please download and open the worship guide to fully participate as you, too, are a vital participant in today’s liturgy. Peace & Blessings Dear Church ~ Pastor Dave
