“Thou art giving and forgiving, ever blessing, ever blest,
wellspring of the joy of living, ocean depth of happy rest!
Thou our Father, Christ our brother, all who live in love are thine;
teach us how to love each other, lift us to the joy divine.” – ELW # 836
In this weekend’s Gospel, Christ challenges us to reflect on the ways that we include and exclude others in our communities along with the challenge and blessing of God’s grace that binds us together. While we had some technical problems with our livestream, we are learning and will be working to improve the experience next weekend. Here is the livestream beginning with the sermon.
