Last week, Pastor Chad began a new sermon series, "Ripening," in which we're looking at ways that God uses botanical growth as a metaphor for the work He wants to do in each of us. We opened the series by talking about the "Fruit of the Spirit" that motivates all others: love. This week, we continue our series with a word from the book of John (John 15:1 11), which tells us where we can find the source of our joy. Where is it, and to what (or whom) is it attached? Find out during the second part of our sermon series. This week's message is titled "Consistent and Complete." If you'd like to join us in person, get directions to our new temporary home at the Lutheran Church of St. Andrew in Silver Spring (just 1 mile south of our permanent location): https://maps.app.goo.gl/UnxyLUn9pWqVWsTn9 Our leadership team is working hard to return to producing a worship bulletin, though it may be digital only for a few weeks until we have our printing workflow back up and running. Our email newsletter, this church website, and our social media pages will continue to be the primary sources of information relating to church life. We continue to solicit your prayers and ask for your patience as we sort through many of the logistical details of worshiping as a displaced congregation. Remember to say hello in the chat, and let us know where you're watching from! DO YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE BIBLE?
