Weekly Worship - June 12, 2021

Lakeside Presbyterian

Sunday, June 13, Dr. Wayne Cook returns to the pulpit. His sermon is entitled “The Sand and the Rock.” Psalm 90:10 says we should expect to live about three score and 10 years (70).

The important question is, what we are going to do with our lives during that time? At the end of The Sermon on the Mount, Jesus uses an analogy to describe life. He says that some build their houses on sand, which washes away in a storm, but the wise person builds his house on solid rock.

All Covid protocols are in effect, and a maximum of 50 attendees is permitted. However, walk-ins are welcome as numbers permit.

Unitarians

The Lake Chapala Unitarian Universalist Fellowship will provide services via Zoom Sunday, June 13, 10:30 a.m. Instructions for accessing the online service are at lakechapalauu.org.

One of the many lessons the pandemic has brought is a reminder that we live in an uncertain world, a world where we don’t have all the truths, all the answers. We’ve seen governments stumble to provide solid and certain guidance on safe and effective behaviors in the pandemic. We’ve had friends, relatives (or yes, ourselves) glom onto factually suspect ideas and practices (e.g. conspiracy theories) as ways to inject a kind of assumed assuredness into these uncertain times. So how do we live with uncertainty? How do we make these best choices when information is scarce, or suspect? How do we make peace with doubt? Rev. Matt will explore living with uncertainty. Cate Howell will be the Service Leader.

Lake Chapala Baptist

The Lake Chapala Baptist Church will be open Sunday, June 13, 10:45 a.m., for in-person service. Covid protocols, including masks, sanitizing and social distancing will be followed.

Last Sunday, Pastor John continued with his exposition of Ephesians and completed the Christian in Complete Armor (Ephesians 6:17b) and the Sword of the Spirit, described as the mighty weapon for attack.

Emphasizing the importance of knowing the Scriptures, the message gave the following principles:

• The word of God is the source of truth. (John 17:17).

• The word of God is also a source of happiness, (Proverbs 8:34 ; Luke 11:28).

• The word of God is the source of spiritual growth. (1 Peter 2:2).

• The word of God is the source of power. (Hebrews 4:12);

• The word of God is the source of victory.

Sunday, June 13, the focus will be on the Priority of Prayer which empowers the proper functioning of the Armor the Christian wears.

Abundant Life Church

There is a lot of talk about infections today with the coronavirus having moved around the globe. Infections are nothing new to mankind and even in the Law of Moses there were rules for isolation when a person was infected. Come this Sunday, June 13, to discover how Jesus changed the rules for infections of His day and continues to do so today. When isolation is the rule the only one who can break that rule is God and He does so time and time again. Let Jesus touch you when no one else can!
