Sixth Sunday of Easter                                 Â
The Gospel lesson for this morning is John 14: 15-21. As Jesus promised, God’s presence abides in us through the Spirit – our advocate, comforter, and encourager – and the practice of love. God’s nearness in Spirit blesses us in our witness. The hallmark of this relationship is love expressed in word and deed. The nearness of God’s presence is underscored by Paul’s address to the Athenians, recorded in Acts 17:22–31. As Paul’s witness proclaims the saving love of God in Christ, a church forms and grows. Even when God’s presence is unrecognized, God in Christ draws near.
As you prepare your worship center for this Sunday, place your heart on your table as a reminder that we are called to be faces of God’s love.   Send a photo of your worship center to Pastor Daniel at bkdaniel@erucc.org  Â
