Dear Members, Friends, and Guests,
This weekend is Confirmation Day. We will be confirming Ellis Ortega at 11am worship. Next year, our confirmation class will be all male and we expect to confirm 5 in 2026!
My sermon this weekend begins a 4-year teaching series (not sermon series) called “Christ at the Center”. It’s a spiritual journey that puts Christ at the center of our lives and everything we do at Epiphany. We will emphasize four great teachings of the inspired and inerrant Word of God (aka Bible): Worship, Word, Sacraments, and Profession of our faith before the world and those who do not yet know Christ as their Savior. We begin our emphasis on worship this Sunday with my message that applies to our confirmands as well as adults: “What is Confirmation?”
Finally, a recap of last week’s message from John 5: 1-9: Sitting on a mat being stuck is not the life Christ wants to give us. Instead, we commend our problem or issue to God and seek His guidance from His Word and through prayer. Then, following Jesus’ command, we “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.”
Joyfully Serving Jesus,
Pastor Mark
