August 9, 2020

 I hope you have had a good week. Here are the worship materials for this week:

Hymn #220VU Praise to the Lord, the Almighty



Suggested Scripture Lessons:  Psalm 105 p.828-9VU
Matthew 14:22-33

Message: 




A Prayer: O God, we praise and thank you that you are a God who can be known in both storm and stillness. We can know your power and majesty in the storm and we can hear your Spirit speak to us in the stillness and quiet of our hearts. May your Spirit speak to us this day that we may overcome our fear and doubts and take our first few steps of faith and hope. 
      Be with those who are filled with fear this day: the people of Beirut and Lebanon seeking to survive and rebuild after the devastation of this past week; the people who struggle with COVID and other diseases as well as those who care for them; and those who deal with uncertainty and injustice each day. 
     Be with them. Be with us, and help us each day to show our care and concern for one another, just as Jesus did, our Saviour and Lord. In his name and powerful spirit we pray. Amen. 

Hymn:  Will Your Anchor Hold? #675VU
