    CommUnion 8.30.26 When God is Enough

    Union Congregational Church seeks to create a celebrating, covenanting, affirming, and justice-seeking faith community, inspiring people to unite & create a peaceful, loving world.   Today's Scripture Reading:   Psalm 142:3-7 3 When my spirit grows faint within me,     it is you who watch over my way. In the path where I walk     people have hidden a snare for me. 4 Look and see, there is no one at my right hand;     no one is concerned for me. I have no refuge;     no one cares for my life. 5 I cry to you, Lord;     I say, “You are my refuge,     my portion in the land of the living.” 6 Listen to my cry,     for I am in desperate need; rescue me from those who pursue me,     for they are too strong for me. 7 Set me free from my prison,     that I may praise your name. Then the righteous will gather about me     because of your goodness to me.   Acts 27:20-25 20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the storm continued raging, we finally gave up all hope of being saved. 21 After they had gone a long time without food, Paul stood up before them and said: “Men, you should have taken my advice not to sail from Crete; then you would have spared yourselves this damage and loss. 22 But now I urge you to keep up your courage, because not one of you will be lost; only the ship will be destroyed. 23 Last night an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I serve stood beside me 24 and said, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul. You must stand trial before Caesar; and God has graciously given you the lives of all who sail with you.’ 25 So keep up your courage, men, for I have faith in God that it will happen just as he told me. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow us on Facebook  @Elk River Union Congregational Church, United Church of Christ

    CommUnion 8.23.26 The Education of Jesus

    Union Congregational Church seeks to create a celebrating, covenanting, affirming, and justice-seeking faith community, inspiring people to unite & create a peaceful, loving world. Today's Scripture Reading: Romans 12: 2 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Matthew 15:21-28 The Faith of a Canaanite Woman 21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. 22 A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.” 23 Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.” 24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.” 25 The woman came and knelt before him. “Lord, help me!” she said. 26 He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.” 27 “Yes it is, Lord,” she said. “Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.” 28 Then Jesus said to her, “Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.” And her daughter was healed at that moment. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow us on Facebook @Elk River Union Congregational Church, United Church of Chris

    CommUnion 8.16.26 Impossible Strength

    Union Congregational Church seeks to create a celebrating, covenanting, affirming, and justice-seeking faith community, inspiring people to unite & create a peaceful, loving world.   Philippians 4:13  13 I can endure all these things through the power of the one who gives me strength.   John 6:1-21   2 A great crowd of people followed him because they saw the miraculous signs he did in healing the sick. 3 Jesus went up on the side of the hill and sat there with his followers. 4 It was almost the time for the Jewish Passover festival. 5 Jesus looked up and saw a crowd of people coming toward him. He said to Philip, “Where can we buy enough bread for all these people to eat?” 6 He asked Philip this question to test him. Jesus already knew what he planned to do. 7 Philip answered, “We would all have to work a month to buy enough bread for each person here to have only a little piece!” 8 Another follower there was Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter. Andrew said, 9 “Here is a boy with five loaves of barley bread and two little fish. But that is not enough for so many people.” 10 Jesus said, “Tell everyone to sit down.” This was a place with a lot of grass, and about 5000 men sat down there. 11 Jesus took the loaves of bread and gave thanks for them. Then he gave them to the people who were waiting to eat. He did the same with the fish. He gave them as much as they wanted. 12 They all had plenty to eat. When they finished, Jesus said to his followers, “Gather the pieces of fish and bread that were not eaten. Don’t waste anything.” 13 So they gathered up the pieces that were left. The people had started eating with only five loaves of barley bread. But the followers filled twelve large baskets with the pieces of food that were left. 14 The people saw this miraculous sign that Jesus did and said, “He must be the Prophet[a] who is coming into the world.” 15 Jesus knew that the people planned to come get him and make him their king. So he left and went into the hills alone. 16 That evening Jesus’ followers went down to the lake. 17 It was dark now, and Jesus had not yet come back to them. They got into a boat and started going across the lake to Capernaum. 18 The wind was blowing very hard. The waves on the lake were becoming bigger. 19 They rowed the boat about three or four miles.[b] Then they saw Jesus. He was walking on the water, coming to the boat. They were afraid. 20 But he said to them, “Don’t be afraid. It’s me.” 21 When he said this, they were glad to take him into the boat. And then the boat reached the shore at the place they wanted to go. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow us on Facebook  @Elk River Union Congregational Church, United Church of Christ

    Union Congregational Church seeks to create a celebrating, covenanting, affirming, and justice-seeking faith community, inspiring people to unite & create a peaceful, loving world. Jeremiah 29 11-14 11 I alone know my purpose for you, says YHWH, my purpose for your prosperity and my purpose not to harm you, my purpose to give you hope with a future in it. 12 At that time you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me wholeheartedly. 14 I will let you find me, says YHWH, and I will restore your fortunes. And I will gather you from all the nations and all the places to which I banished you, says YHWH, and restore you to the place from which I carried you to exile.    Matthew 7 7-11 7 Ask and keep asking, and you will receive. Seek and keep seeking and you will find. Knock and keep knocking and the door will be opened to you. 8 For the one who keeps asking, receives. The one who keeps seeking, finds, And the one who keeps knocking, enters. 9 Is there any among you who would hand your daughter a stone when she asked for bread? 10 Would one of you hand your son a snake  when he asked for a fish? 11 If you, with all your faults know how to give your children what is good, how much more will your Abba God in heaven give good things to those who ask! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow us on Facebook  @Elk River Union Congregational Church, United Church of Christ
