Happy Palm Sunday!
The AOC Sunday Report can be downloaded RIGHT HERE!
We have excellent sermons from Bishop Roy, as well as Revs Jack and Bryan. Bishop Jerry posted a lovely devotion on today's Gospel RIGHT HERE. Rev Jack brings the Propers together today. His sermon is below the propers and can be viewed on video HERE -> https://youtu.be/VA4WJmr6S3I
In the Collect, we acknowledge God sent His Son to be our Savior. Think about that, the Creator, Lord and Master of the Universe sent His only Son to live amongst us and not just provide us with instruction and leadership, but to give His earthly life as a one time sacrifice for our sin that we might be accounted as perfect in our final accounting, the resurrection. In the his Epistle, Paul reminds us if Christ, the Son of God, was obedient to God, we should so be. Also, as a result of that obedience, God hath given Jesus the name to which all of earth should bow. The Gospel is the story of Jesus’ trial and crucifixion. It all comes together, listen or read to understand how.
There are always a lot of people who need our prayer, please take a bit of time, start with Tricia, Laurie, Shamu, the Flanagan family who will feel Jim's absence sorely at Easter. Join the Brown family in giving thanks for Marty's successful pacemaker upgrade.
There is a lot going on this week, if you think your week is bad, read the report and think of the week Jesus' followers had without the help of the Holy Ghost.
Trust in God and Dread Naught.
Godspeed,
