PASTOR'S NOTES

Hello Wesley,

Hope we are all having a glorious summer. We have begun our study of Corinth and I want to remind everyone to continue bringing your mask to church every week until the study is completed.

This past Sunday I went through the tedious list of all of the issues the Corinthian church faced, and there were many. I knew it would be arduous but it was necessary. Each of the next few week we will be looking at the great "YES" Paul offers the church in response to sin. If you can, continue reading the two letters to the Corinthians each week.

This week we will be focusing attention on 1 Corinthians 1-6 if you would like to focus your study. The topics will include division in the church, discerning truth and authority, and human sexuality. This study is intended to reach beyond our local church, so invite others to listen in and participate.

We had some trouble with the Facebook feed for the livestream because of a copyright issue. When that happens, you can just go to the church's website and watch through You Tube.

I love being your pastor.

Ernie
