Happy Mother’s Day my sermon today is about Lydia the 1st convert in Asia Minor 8:30 AM. If you cannot worship with us in person look at the service on the church website, YouTube or Facebook. Blessings Nick.
Lord I thank you for this opportunity. You have opened the floodgates. Your power, grace and mercy have opened doors I could not have imagined. You have leveled the playing field. Now, it is up to me to take the ball, run, block, and tackle. I am ready to pass and receive the ball. Strengthen my legs and I will run. Touch my lips, and I will speak. Tickle my heart, and I will beat. I give myself to you. You have given me the opportunity, now, i will witness for you. I will go where you tell me to go. I will do what you want me to do. Make me a living sacrifice as I testify to your wonderous deeds. Thank you Lord. This opportunity is more than I could ask for. You have blessed me in so many ways and now I am ready to go the distance on your behalf. In Jesus name I pray Amen

My godfather used to say with a smile, “ when I die bury me deep put some syrup at my feet, put a biscuit in my hand so I can sop my way to the promised land”
I would like to share the following prayer for those times when we are praying on behalf of someone who is dying.
Lord grant me the right words and the right spirit, that I might help my friends and loved ones to die a good death. Bless my spirit that I might be able to encourage others with the hope of everlasting life promised to us through Jesus Christ our Lord and savior. Help me to help others as well as myself not to fear death, but to embrace death and the transition to life immortal as something to look forward to and not fear. Help me to help others to transcend fear of death and the unknown and to replace those fears with joy for life immortal in Jesus Christ. Amen

Lord, make me never so smart or self confident that I refuse to take time to listen to the words of a child and the eggar in the street. Humble my spirit that I might become a better listener, more observant, and more loving as I try to be more like you. In Jesus name I pray Amen

The Good Samaritan sermon
Luke 10 25 Just then a lawyer stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he said, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 26 He said to him, “What is written in the law? What do you read there?” 27 He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.” 28 And he said to him, “You have given the right answer; do this, and you will live.”
29 But wanting to justify himself, he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” 30 Jesus replied, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped him, beat him, and went away, leaving him half dead. 31 Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. 32 So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 But a Samaritan while traveling came near him; and when he saw him, he was moved with pity. 34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, having poured oil and wine on them. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35 The next day he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said, ‘Take care of him; and when I come back, I will repay you whatever more you spend.’ 36 Which of these three, do you think, was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of the robbers?” 37 He said, “The one who showed him mercy.” Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”
A. Last week I was invited to join a conversation among Catholic lawyers, prosecutors, and judges to talk about creating a dialogue that would try to seek the right balance between justice and mercy
