Sharing God's Love Growing Faith Worshipping Together

Thought for the week:​​
​
From Locked Doors to Open Streets
Locked in Fear
In John 20, the disciples are hiding.
The doors are locked tightly because of fear.
We also lock our hearts when anxious or hurt.
We choose safety over our true purpose.
The Breath of Peace
Jesus breaks through their closed doors.
He gives them peace, not judgment.
He breathes the Holy Spirit onto them.
He sends them out into the world.
Out into the Streets
In Acts 2, the quiet breath becomes a mighty wind.
Holy Spirit fire drives them outside.
They leave the locked room for the marketplace.
Comfort transforms into a bold mission.
Barriers Broken
The disciples speak in diverse languages.
Every nation hears God's wonders clearly.
Peter declares Joel's radical prophecy.
"Everyone who calls on the Lord will be saved."
Open Your Door
Do not stay hidden away.
Receive Christ's peace right now.
Let the Spirit push you forward.
Move from safety into the world. C.T.
Collect
Holy Spirit, sent by the Father,
ignite in us your holy fire;
strengthen your children with the gift of faith,
revive your Church with the breath of love,
and renew the face of the earth,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
