Sunday Service
October 18th, 2026 10AM
The Scripture Lessons for the Twenty-First Sunday after Pentecost are:
Exodus 33:12-23 and Psalm 99 or
Isaiah 45:1-7 and Psalm 96:1-9, (10-13)
1 Thessalonians 1:1-10
Matthew 22:15-22
As Christians, we know we believe in Immanuel, God with us. We cling to this idea in theory, but in the everyday messiness of life, we sometimes still wonder where God actually is. This week’s readings offer various perspectives on God’s presence. In Exodus, Moses feels insecure about the calling on his life and asks to see God. The psalmist remembers the story of God’s presence with the Israelites in the wilderness. The Gospel reminds us that even when we ponder momentous decisions about weighty topics, our ultimate security is in our belonging to God. And Pal’s letter to the Thessalonians gives us an example of experiencing God’s love in everyday friendship.
May we remember our purpose of coming together to grow in faith so that we may share God’s love with all,
Rev. Amie
