Called Into Service – v2

Each of us uniquely

called to service, to worship

as given by the Spirit

gifts for the work

building up the church of God

Called into service

to use the gifts we are given

to teach one another

the love of our God

Caring for the community

those who are our neighbors

the strangers in our midst

that they would come to the table

The saving of Christ’s sacrifice

his victory over death

the narrow gate of heaven

through the blood of the lamb

Yet freely his love given

unmerited, agape

so we must spread the news

Christ paved the way

we are redeemed before our God

Matthew 25:15

Acts 16:9-15, 40

“Notes from Peter”, by Reverend Peter A. Hey,

about his sermon for Mother’s Day, May 9, 2010

“Lydia had the gift of giving.  Her financial support of the early

Christian movement played a significant role in the church. 

My sermon on Mother’s Day will help us appreciate her gifts

and the gifts of leadership that many women bring to the church. 

I believe that loving, listening and learning are essential for leadership. 

I will be preaching this sermon at the evening service, as well as

the morning services.”
