THE 3RD SUNDAY AFTER PENTECOST
26 June 2022
Welcome! We extend a warm welcome to our guests, and invite you to sign the guest book at the back of the sanctuary. Everyone is invited to remain for a cup of coffee in the Church Hall following the service. Enjoy a piece of cake as well, in celebration of Rob McPherson’s 65th birthday!
Summer Services – This year, we’re returning to our tradition of participating in joint summer services with the two United Church congregations in town, as announced in the Newsletter. This summer, we will be exploring various miracle stories in the Bible, and the schedule will be as follows:
July 3 McKenzie Jesus feeds the five thousand
10 McKenzie Jesus heals a man blind from birth
17 McKenzie Jesus raises Lazarus from death
24 First God provides manna in the wilderness
31 First The healing of Naaman
August 7 First Jesus heals a centurion’s slave
14 Trinity Jesus calms a storm
21 Trinity Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego
28 Trinity Jesus turns water into wine.
(continued)
Summer Services – (continued)
This year, all services will be led by the minister of the host congregation. Since McKenzie doesn’t yet have a minister, services there will be led by Norman Collier (3, 17 July) and Julie Hutton (10 July). Pandemic protocols at both McKenzie and Trinity are pretty much the same as those here at First. For details, see the separate announcement, below.
