Speaker: Guest Preacher

Did you RSVP?

In this week’s gospel, Jesus tells a parable of a royal wedding, where the king invites guests to his son’s wedding banquet, but they refuse to come. The king then extends the invitation to anyone on the streets, but one guest is found improperly dressed and is thrown out. Today we celebrate God’s wide welcome to all of us to the table and remember that we are called to do the same for others. 

Accompanying Scripture:
Isaiah 25:1-9; Psalm 23; Matthew 22:1-14

Accompanying Scripture:
Romans 6:12-23 ; Psalm 89:1-4, 15-18; Matthew 10:40-42

Being the Light of Christ

Guest preacher Rev. Rose Mary Sánchez-Guzmán visits Faith to share her experience ministering to the community of Cristo Rey Lutheran Church in El Paso, Texas.

“Jesus already crossed all kinds of borders for you. He came to be the light of the world. How can we not dare cross borders with him to bring his light to others? What we have is not because we deserve it. They are gifts that bring us into relationship with others – and with God, who reaches beyond the boundaries of men.”
