February 5 Worship: Quo Vadimus - A Luke 10 Church (Part 2)

On Sunday, we gathered for another uplifting worship service.  On Scout Sunday, we were privileged to welcome some of the leaders and scouts from the Cub Pack that Eastgate hosts.  They posted the colors and led us in the Pledge of Allegiance.  It was good to celebrate the important character formation that scouting nurtures in our community and country.

We also celebrated the training of several volunteers over the weekend to help with our Children's Worship and Wonder program.  During the invitation, Suzanne Rebecchi offered a testimony about how passionate she is about connecting our young people with God through this program, including the blessings she has sensed through her participation in the program at Eastgate over the past year.

During the sermon, we concluded our sermon series "Quo Vadimus (Where are we going?)" with the second sermon on "A Luke 10 Church."  In the last stories of Luke 10, which include the parable of the Good Samaritan, we considered the other three attributes of a church found by Christian author Brian McLaren in the passage -- joy, compassion, and total devotion to Christ's teaching.  I thought it was good end to the sermon series.

If you missed Sunday's sermon, if you'd like to listen to it again, or if you'd like to share it with others, you can find an audio recording here.
