We begin a new sermon series inspired by Psalm 90 entitled “Teach us to Number Our Days.” Many activities fill our schedules and days to overflowing and a life of faith can assist us in being attentive and intentional about making choices that foster joy. On this first Sunday in the series Pastor Teresa will preach about the gift of pastimes and hobbies

How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. - Annie Dillard 

Teach us, O God, to number our days, that we may have a heart of wisdom. - Psalm 90:12

Megan Otto preaches a little about her renewal leave time and the journeys we are on in our lives of faith.

Pastor Earl preaches on the miracle story of feeding the multitude in the Gospel of John and its enduring message of the world that Jesus wants to make with us here and now.

“ At its essence, a miracle is a message… A miracle is God’s extraordinary message in the midst of the ordinary; it is an exercise not in the supernatural or in the irregular but in communication.” – Peter J. Gomes

Pastor Teresa preaches and the sermon text comes from Mark 6:30-34 where Jesus invites the disciples to get away for a time of rest. We also hear a reading from Psalm 23 as we remember Jesus The Good Shepherd who extends compassion to our weary souls.

“A great benefit of Sabbath keeping is that we learn to let God take care of us — not by becoming passive and lazy, but in the freedom of giving up our feeble attempts to be God in our own lives.” –Marva J. Dawn

We hear the Gospel story from Mark 6:1-13. Jesus is rejected in his hometown and then sends the disciples out two by two. In her sermon “Shake it Off,” Pastor Teresa reflects on instructions from Jesus in this Gospel Lesson–instructions that just might be helpful for us in navigating these challenging times in our current political landscape.

Join us for worship this Sunday! The Gospel Lesson comes from Mark and is often called “The Healing on the Way to A Healing,” as it includes two healing stories.

Join us for worship! Our sermon text is Mark’s account of Jesus in the storm with the disciples and Pastor Teresa preaches.

The scripture reading includes The Parable of the Growing Seed and the Parable of the Mustard Seed. We welcome guest preacher Ron Welborn (Pastor Teresa’s dad) who will share about his work at a #StayUMC gathering in Seguin following Seguin FUMC’s disaffiliation from The UMC. Ron is a retired band director and in recent years retired from a 2nd career as a pastor in the Río Texas Conference. He has served churches in Cuero, LaFeria, and Seguin and jokes that he “followed in his daughter’s footsteps into the ministry.”

This Sunday, Pastor Teresa preaches and shares about her call to ministry. The Gospel Lesson comes from Mark 2 and focuses on themes of The Sabbath.

We celebrate Trinity Sunday! The doctrine of the Trinity often sounds heavy and makes us wonder what this ancient doctrine about who God is has to do with who we are today. Come with an open heart as we meditate on the meaning of the Trinity and celebrate divine love in its diversity and communion.
