Worship for Sunday

This week is the Third Sunday after Epiphany. Our scripture for the week includes Jonah 3.15-, 10: Jonah's second call by God to preach to Nineveh, and the Nenevites' response--and God's response to their repentance; Psalm 62; about trusting our God who is for us refuge and salvation; and Mark 1.14-20, the call Jesus issues to James, John, Peter and Andrew: 'follow me,' as he begins the proclamation of the Kingdom of God.

A Prayer for the Day:

Almighty God, to you belong power and steadfast love with you there is refuge and salvation. By the Spirit, help us to hear your call to share the message of Jesus Christ who calls us to follow the way of the Kingdom and proclaim the good news. Through Jesus Christ our Lord who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit: One God. Amen.
