June 29– Third Sunday after Pentecost
10:30 AM, Worship with Holy Communion in Sanctuary and Livestream
2 Kings 2:1–2, 6–14 | Luke 9:51-62
In Luke 9:51–62, Jesus and the disciples are on the journey to Jerusalem. The disciples, angry when a village does not welcome them, want to call down fire from heaven, an echo of the Elijah story in 2 Kings 1:9–12. Jesus shows them a new way, teaching them, and us, to love our enemies. Jesus reminds us of the cost of picking up the mantle of discipleship. Other loyalties must be set aside, and there can be no turning back when we make a commitment to follow Jesus.
The Senior Choir will sing.
ERUCC also holds a healing worship service with Holy Communion at 8:30 AM.
