In today's worship Rev. Bob Shaw artfully weaves a message of hope from Ezekiel 37 and the story of Ezekiel's experience of prophesying to the valley of dry bones. Included in today's time together in worship are an equally hopeful communion meditation by Rev. Audrey Borschel, and popular hymn favorites, "It is Well With My Soul," "Jesus Walked This Lonesome Valley," and "Seed, Scattered and Sown." We hope you will join us for this short time together in worship: just over 30 minutes, and that you will be blessed by the time you spend here.

Part of this Sunday's worship was redone at the last hour because of the unfolding tragedy in Japan after the 8.9 magnitude earthquake and the ensuing tsunami. Most of all, we wanted to have a strong moment of prayer in support of the people of Japan, and also for the individuals who have been tuning in from Japan to the worship videos.… Read the rest “DisciplesNet Worship # 20, “In God’s Eyes” (Phelps 03-13-2011)”
