August 20 Worship & Bible Class
On Sunday Pr. Bender will preach on the Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector who went to the temple. The lowly tax collector came to the temple and prayed, “God, be merciful to me, a sinner!” was the one who went down to his house justified before God, not the respectable, outwardly righteous Pharisee who trusted in himself and his own good living (Luke 18:9-14). During the service we will also recognize the 20th anniversary of ordination of Pr. Seifferlein with a special prayer and blessing. You may prepare by reading the Propers of the day.
Join us in the Evangelism Wing for Adult Bible Class following the service. Pastor Bender will be teaching this Sunday.
