Welcome to this week's DisciplesNet worship experience! This week's worship continues to grow out of the Easter story.  In "May the Scales Fall From My Eyes," Rev. Audrey Borschel gives us a special look at a man called Saul who was about to have a life-changing experience on the road to Damascus. The experience of Saul, who would become known to the world as the Apostle Paul, would not only change his life, but the world, as he faithfully gave the remainder of his life to living for the one he had been persecuting.
Our short time together, is 27 minutes and includes prayer, scripture, singing, and listening to the word together with people in times and places all around the world.
As we do every week, our time together includes a time of communion (breaking of the bread) where you may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me."
If you would like to share with us at the table that defies all boundaries of time, place, and structure, then we ask that you prepare a wafer, cracker, or bread and a drink.  As we pray, we are praying that our blessing extends to where you are.  If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.  (Scroll down for an Order of Worship)

We hope that as you join us for worship you will feel a blessing from beige part. Please tell friends, family, and others you know about our online church that is here with doors that are always open, walls as wide as the world, and always room at the table.

If you would like to chat with one of our pastors, including talking more about belief in God, becoming a Christian or following Christ, or living as  a disciple of Christ, please email us at pastor@disciplesnet.org, or contact us using the contact information on our website, including our community, DisciplesNet City Cafe, found on our website.
