Sunday, May 31, 2020 Worship @ GSJ
Where we recognize movements in the world that bring healing, hope, and abundant life for all creation,
there’s a pretty good chance that we’ve met the movement of the Holy Spirit. - Rev. Richard Bott
We are pleased to welcome Janet Nield to lead us in worship this Pentecost Sunday! Please have a small piece of bread or a cracker, as well as wine or juice to join with Janet in the celebration of communion.
Pentecost Sunday Scripture Readings: Acts 2:1-21; Numbers 11:24-30; Psalm 104:24-34, 35b; 1 Corinthians 12:3b-13; John 20:19-23; John 7:37-39
We celebrate with Rev. George Clifford, our minister of visitation, on his 88th birthday tomorrow, by singing Happy Birthday. Rev. George Clifford has lived the Gospel for 88 years, sixty of those as an ordained minister. His life and work have shown us discipleship in action, and so we dedicate our opening hymn to George!
Donating at a Distance:
To make an "at a distance" donation to Glebe-St. James (to the operating fund, to outreach, to M&S, etc.) or specifically our ongoing COVID-19 outreach fund, you have several options: the
web donation button, by mail, by setting up PAR (pre-authorized remittance) or by using the mail-slot on the 650 Lyon Street South entrance door. In each case, you can specify where you would like the funds to be directed!
