Weekly Update for Grace & Trinity

25 September 2020
*Friday of Trinity 15*

Dear Saints and Friends of Grace & Trinity,

*SUNDAY – TRINITY 16*
T the Sunday of the Widow’s Son T
1 Kings 17:17-24; Ephesians 3:13-21; Luke 7:11-17 <ec2-52-26-194-35.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/x/d?c=8985685&l=fb156ef4-41a7-4342-a1fe-574f3eb4dcea&r=f531ab4b-9cc5-492e-9a44-109f54e9b229>

There’s a dead boy being carried through the town when Jesus arrives. His widowed mother is weeping; the crowds are weeping; the world is weeping. Death should not be—but even more so for the children. Thanks be to God that when death confronts Jesus—His compassion, His mercy, His eternal and unfailing love—then death has no other option than to turn back and flee! And when death flees, the boy has no other option than to get up and speak. And so it goes also for you. Dear Saints, *join us* *this Sunday at 8am at Grace and* *11am at Trinity as Christ comes to us again, calling us to arise, and giving us a new voice of praise and thanksgiving!*

*Bible Study is at 9:30am at Trinity. *We’re still in chapter five of the book of Revelation. To prepare for chapter 6, here’s your weekly dose of Peter Leithart on Revelation <ec2-52-26-194-35.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/x/d?c=8985685&l=f35fc5a1-0ba9-4b01-adcb-d1dd3dee7d68&r=f531ab4b-9cc5-492e-9a44-109f54e9b229>.

· I’ve been hearing quite a bit of buzz about the new Netflix Documentary: Social Dilemma. I’ve not seen it yet but want to. Apparently, it’s a very severe unmasking of the reality behind our social media driven world, including the voices of those who actually worked at the design of these programs. If you have teens, this is especially for you. But it’s also just for you.

Do not be anxious. Ha! What *isn’t *there to be anxious about these days? Politics, COVID-19, broken families, gender dysphoria, masks, on-line education, low church attendance, apathy, the opiate pandemic, loss of work, “*what shall we eat, what shall we drink, what shall we wear*,” etc. etc. etc.—there’s seemingly no end to the worries of this world. And yet our Lord says to us, “*But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you*” (Mt 6:33).

Weekly Update for Grace & Trinity – Friday 11 September 2020

SUNDAY – TRINITY 14

† the Sunday of the Ten Lepers †

Proverbs 4:10-23; Galatians 5:16-24; Luke 17:11-19

Last week, the Good Samaritan did literally everything for the fallen man; this week everything is done for the Samaritan. But what sets the Samaritan apart this time is his thanksgiving. How anyone could fail to give thanks to God for doing everything for us is incredible. And yet, how often do we find ourselves with bitter or angry hearts, jealous and discontent with what the Lord has given us? Join us this Sunday at 8am at Grace and 11am at Trinity as together we give thanks to God for all things!

Bible Study is at 9:30am at Trinity. We’re still in chapter five of the book of Revelation. Here’s another short video by Peter Leithart. Please join us!

For those not yet joining us in personhere is the bulletin for Sunday to follow along with at home. Please remember to give your offering to the Lord for the service of the Church, either by mailing a check or donating through our PayPal account (GraceTrinity). I know this is a difficult financial time for many, so if you need assistance, please let us know! We are so thankful for the continued generosity shown to both congregations during this time. Also, here are the news/notes and the congregation at prayer for Sunday. If you’ve missed any of the services and don’t have FB, please see my YouTube channel.
