Welcome to worship on the Fifth Sunday after Pentecost. Today's worship focuses our attention on the gift of baptism.  Pastor Sarah shares both a special children's message and a sermon based on the gospel reading from Matthew 11:16-19, 25-30 and on Psalm 23.  In the waters of baptism we find both Jesus' promised rest that revives our spirits and a call to be a part of his  on-going work in the world.
