This Sunday, we will have a special moment during Memorial Day Weekend to honor loved ones who have passed away in the past year with a special "Laying of the Rose" ceremony.
The sermon will consider important lessons from Jesus' Great Commission to his disciples -- that they go into all the world to make disciples in his name. Entitled, "This Is Only the Beginning," the sermon will consider how Jesus hoped his disciples would live out this charge and how we might also.
I'm sure that many have been praying for those affected by the terrible tornadoes this week, particularly in Moore, Oklahoma. Here is the most recent update (from earlier today) about the response from Week of Compassion, the emergency relief ministry of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), which has already given money to church members directly affected. You may make a donation to these efforts through the Week of Compassion website or by designating a donation through Eastgate.
