Rely on Serving the God Who Serves Us! August 11th Worship Podcast and Sermon Text for South Meriden Trinity UMC

Keep your lamps trimmed and burning, and see what the Lord will do with your life! Pastor John's sermon invited us this week to be ready to rely on God first and foremost for our joy, as a taste of what God's home in heaven can be like on earth! Our Wesleyan Litany gave us words to hold on to when we need to offer God our complete reliance for our lives. Tuck it away, or ask Pastor John for a copy.

Above is a photo of the lamps on Pastor John's porch, and the family that waits for him with covenant love. Podcast with sermon, prayers and sending below, sermon text here and below the podcast, And the YouTube video of a baby cockatoo being so happy to see his master come home is here, too! Let's all try to find that joy of that love in our lives this week!
