Worship Service April 7, 2024
This is our final message in the series, "A Wandering Heart: Figuring Out Faith with Peter." It is also my final Sunday as pastor of the Holmesville Church of the Brethren. I am borrowing Frederick Buechner's essay on Peter for my final message. (You didn't think I would let any opportunity to quote Buechner go by, did you?) Our scripture is John 21:1-19.
Our hymns are "Come thou fount of every blessing," "Christ is risen, shout hosanna," and "Thine is the glory." Lyrics are here: https://hymnary.org/text/come_thou_fount_of_every_blessing, http://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/c/i/r/s/cirshout.htm, and here: https://hymnary.org/text/thine_is_the_glory_risen_conquering. -
