The Season of Creation - Third Sunday

September 20, 2020

Sunday, September 20th, 2020 Worship @ GSJ

Welcome back to worship with Glebe-St.James! Hilda Sabadash has stepped in on behalf of Rev. Teresa Burnett Cole to lead us in worship, together with a small onsite team. 

Scripture Reading: Matthew 13:1-8
Bulletin: Find our weekly bulletin with the texts of the service (including hymn lyrics!) and community announcements here. 
Donating at a Distance: Join in on the virtual offering plate for M&S, Outreach & GSJ operational needs!  

Many thanks to those of you who travelled through the journey of the livestream this morning! Technology can be a weird and wonderful world, and today there were more than a few bumps along the road. We're climbing a learning curve together - both from those of us trying to send the stream out, and those of you tuning in to join in worship. Thanks to everyone who chimed in in the comments section! We will definitely make use of that as a way to touch bases for any future technical glitches. 

The livestream is still available on Facebook, but we have now also uploaded the recorded service to YouTube. Head right to our Sunday playlist(you can see past services there as well!), or watch it right here on our website:
