inherit the Earth"
more beatitudes....

Hospitality help
needed...Each week we like to offer some light snacks. The church provides
donuts and cheese, but it's a great help if someone volunteers to bring in
some extra goodies. There's a sign-up sheet on the wall behind the food in
the Hospitality area. Can you help?

Matt 5:
1-12
The Beatitudes
When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain; and after he sat
down, his disciples came to him. 2Then he began to speak, and taught
them, saying:
‘Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
‘Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
‘Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
‘Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they
will be filled.
‘Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy.
‘Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
‘Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
‘Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for
theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
‘Blessed are you when people revile you and persecute you and utter all
kinds of evil against you falsely on my account.
Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for in the same
way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

God's
love and attention for us is without end, without bound, without limits.
Why should our personal worship encompass only 1 hour on Sunday?
God invites us to a 24/7 relationship. Here's your opportunity to
continue to explore the way God's word connects with this week's worship
theme. We invite you to spend some time each day discovering God's
word...

into Jesus' promise: "blessed are the meek (sometimes translated "humble" or
"gentle"), for they shall inherit the earth".
