In our scripture for today, Jesus tells the story of a persistent widow and an unrighteous judge. What can we learn from this story? What does it tell us about prayer? What does it tell us about our relationship with God? What does it mean for us to have faith? Pastor Amy helps us better understand the parable in Luke 18:1-8 and shows us ways our prayer life can be richer and deeper.
Join us for just over 30 minutes of worship, prayer, scripture, a number of favorite hymns, and communion. 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 goes beyond earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers extend 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.
