On this Eighth Sunday after Pentecost, we conclude our 4-part worship series entitled "Moving Forward" with a reflection on Ephesians 3:18-21 and what it means to be "filled with all the fullness of God" to be engaged in the ministries of care and presence that Jesus began as outlines in his "mission statement" that's found in Luke 4:16-19. In what ways are we empowered to do the work of Jesus' mission? How does Jesus' mission statement inform the church's ministries? While MVCC is "Moving Forward: Beyond Today", beyond the pastoral leadership of Rev. Dawn as she retires, we'll reflect on the ways that the past can inform the future, the fullness of God will shape MVCC's ministries, and Jesus' mission statement serves as a guide for the church's decisions. Join us this Sunday and be a part of crossing a threshold to whatever God has planned for MVCC's future.
A Potluck Retirement Luncheon for Rev. Dawn will follow worship as we wish her well in retirement and express our gratitude for the years she served among us.
Please be sure to check in with the Greeter at the Welcome Table. A supervised children's Prayground area is available with activities for the children that enables parents to worship in another area of the room.
If you will be joining us virtually, whether or not on livestream, you’re encouraged to prepare a worship space that’s meaningful to you – perhaps a candle as a reminder of the Light of Christ shining in the brokenness of this world, & your Communion elements for our time of gathering around the Open Table at Christ’s invitation to all.
