Good morning!
We're so glad you have chosen to join us today!
When we meet in person, we take some time to share our joys and concerns. If you have anything you would like to share, you can add a comment to this post. When you are ready, use the prayer below, from Xavier University, to get started. As this is Memorial Day weekend, the prayer relates to that.
Gracious God,
On this Memorial Day, we pray for those who courageously laid down their lives for the cause of freedom. May the examples of their sacrifice inspire in us the selfless love of Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. Bless the families of our fallen troops, and fill their homes and their lives with Your strength and peace. In union with people of goodwill of every nation, embolden us to answer the call to work for peace and justice, and thus, seek an end to violence and conflict around the globe. We ask this through your name. Amen.
Today's lesson is on Galatians 5:16-26.

Good morning!
We're so glad you decided to join us today!
When we meet together in person, we share our joys and concerns before we focus on our Sunday school lesson. Think about your needs and concerns right now, and if you like, you can share them in the comments.
Today’s lesson is on a section of Paul’s letter to the church in Galatia. It is part of Paul’s argument against the dangers of so-called Judaizers, who were teaching that Christians must continue to rely on the Old Testament law in order to be children of God, despite the fact that Christ had come. For us, it is a warning that, even though we want to live as godly lives as possible, we should not see adherence to rules as the foundation of our faith. That is only and always the result of faith in Christ and what God did for us through him. The following prayer, slightly edited, is from the website Knowing Jesus.
Heavenly Father, thank You that Jesus took the full punishment for our sins on the Cross. We are so thankful that our salvation is not based on the good things that we do to please You, but on the good work that Christ did on the Cross on our behalf. Keep us from trying to add to Christ's finished work on the Cross, but may weI live our lives in a manner that is pleasing to You, as we die to ourselves and live for Christ. In Jesus' name, Amen.
This week's lesson is on Galatians 3:18-29.
Happy Mother's Day!

We are meeting together each morning in the Sunday School room, just off the sanctuary. If you feel comfortable, we would love to have you join us in person. When we meet, we share any joys or concerns from the past week to pray for. If you have anything you would like to share, please feel free to do so in the comment section of this post. When you are ready, use the prayer below (source) to get started.
Heavenly Father,
I speak this prayer to you now in gratitude and praise for the gift of mothers. My mother, those of my friends, relatives, those I’ll never know, all mothers. Thank you for the role they play in the family unit. Thank you for their teachings, their wisdom, their patience, and understanding. Thank you for the physical, emotional, and spiritual gifts they possess. I pray that you help mothers all across the world to be a blessing upon their children. Whether delivering affirmation or discipline, I pray that you help every word and action to be done in love. And I pray that children throughout the world would take time to honor their mothers, that you would show them how to uniquely do so. I pray that these mothers also act as a blessing beyond their households, reaching into their extended families, communities, churches, schools. I pray that the impact of motherhood is revered throughout society and that these women are acknowledged for their everyday impact on the world. May you guide each of them into fulfilling their purpose here on Earth. Amen.
Today's lesson is on Romans 8:18-30.
