PASTOR’S WEEKLY MESSAGE


This coming Sunday is the Day of Pentecost.  We like to wear red on that day in honor of the movement of the Holy Spirit.  The gospel for May 28th is John 20:19-23 but we don’t want to forget our first lesson which has lots of excitment in it.  Be sure to look at Acts 2:1-21.  The sermon will center around this amazing day of Pentecost.  Join us for Sunday worship  services at 10:30 and noon.  We also have our exciting Sunday School at 9am each week.
 

We had a very thoughtful and loving season of Lent   We talked about the stories behind the hymns.  Some of the hymns we covered were Just As I Am, Nearer My God to Thee, O God Our Help in Ages Past, Abide With Me, A Mighty Fortress and Joy to the World
 

We pray for many  We celebrate with Dale Cooley who had a successful surgery this week.  We also celebrate with graduates everywhere but especially our own graduates from Springboro - Katie, Lizzie and Sophie Roush.  Our prayers are with a number of people including Phyllis Abney (Vienna Springs), Leana Bentley (Sycamore Springs) and Melvin Johnson.  All are under hospice care.  Others in our prayers include the Dodsons, Pat Muller, Andy & Katie Schultz and family, Lois Masters and Bill Jackle.  We are honored to have several military folks connected with St. Jacob and we pray for Steven Greenlee, Alex Eanes, Ben Sweeney and  Zac Boyd.  Jacob Gore used to be on this list but now he is back in Miamisburg and doing well as he is working for the city of West Carrollton and playing guitar with us at the noon service.  We are people of peace and we pray for peace in Ukraine and the world.
 

Prayer of the day - Day of Pentecost  O God, on this day you open the hearts of your faithful p[eople by sending into us your Holy Spirit.  Direct us by the light of that Spirit, that we may have a right judgment in all things and rejoice at all times in your peace, through Jesus Christ, your Son and our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.  Amen.
 

Some powerful scripture from the gospel for this Sunday which is John 20:22  “When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them “Receive the Holy Spirit.”
 

 

Love is perhaps the only glimpse we are permitted of eternity.

So.......lots of love for you and me in 2023.
