    In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Our Gospel reading today begins by mentioning the “Feast of the Dedication” which took place in Jerusalem.

    The Beatitudes are meant for all Christians. Jesus expects us to manifest all of them. They are not learnt traits, but the fruit brought forth by the grace of God in our lives.

    John's most basic concern is to give this church confidence again in what they have believed about Jesus. And he reminds them that this message is carried by the church that listens to the Apostles, and it isn't found anywhere else.

    Sermon by Rev John Altmann There are a number of ways that people leave churches, for both good and bad reasons. A good reason to leave is to be sent out to serve in another place. We've seen that recently with Heather and Adam. They spent two years with us practicing their ministry, trying things ...read more
