August 2008
Sunday August 3 10:00 AM	12th Sunday after Pentecost Theme:"Table of Plenty" Focus Scripture: Matthew 14: 13-21 Second Reading: Genesis 32: 22-31 Matthew 14:13-21 challenges us to live not by a myth of scarcity, but from the perspective of abundance. In your life, when have you observed most vividly the contrast between a person who is always saving for a rainy day, and one who lives like there is no tomorrow? In what situation is your community most likely to respond with a generous spirit?
Sunday August 10 10:00 AM	13th Sunday after Pentecost Theme:"Lifted Up" Focus Scripture: Genesis 37: 1-4, 12-28 Second Reading: Psalm 105: 1-6, 16-22 Our texts for this Sunday encourage a trust in God at work in and through all things. What are the situations or times when you know you've not been able to trust God? What are the things that make trust in God so difficult for you?
Sunday August 17 10:00 AM	14th Sunday after Pentecost Theme:"Blessed and Forgiven" Focus Scripture: Genesis 45: 1-15 Second Reading: Psalm 133 Human relationships are often difficult, and events might seem to conspire against a healthy and fulfilling life together. God empowers us to restore broken relationships. God's presence in reconciliation brings a new, sacred unity to community. How do you, as an individual and church, embrace opportunities for reconciliation and forgiveness?
Sunday August 24 10:00 AM	15th Sunday after Pentecost Theme:"Courageous Woman" Focus Scripture: Exodus 2: 1-10 Second Reading: Romans 12: 1-8 Our passage from Exodus underlines the necessity of demonstrating God's grace and generosity to one who is not only an enemy, but also of a different race, culture and religion. The Pharaoh's daughter, a woman of colour, of Egyptian culture, and of the faith of Isis, reaches across barriers of race, religion, culture and gender to include the stranger Moses.
Sunday August 31 10:00 AM	16th Sunday after Pentecost Theme:"The Minisrty of Jesus in Music and Scripture" Scripture readings: Mark 1: 16-20 Matthew 5: 1-12 Matthew 5: 14-16 Luke 12: 22-31 Luke 19: 1-10 Matthew 14: 15-21 (Offertory) Matthew 18: 12-14 This will be a worship service that brings the good news of Jesus Christ to us all through singing, music and the Word of God. It will be a joyous celebration of song and scripture, with hymns that you all know and can all sing. Hope you can join us for this special event.
