The View from The Bridge

The Bridge – Fall 2024, Week 11
  

Join us this THURSDAY the 7^th downstairs at the church for dinner, conversation, and games!

Dinner this week we will be ordering from Ginger.

Please DM on the GroupMe your order by Noon on Thursday. 

Worship Sunday at 10AM. 

It’s the 25^th Sunday after Pentecost. Widows are visible everywhere in Sunday’s readings. Jesus denounces those scribes who pray impressive prayers but devour widows’ houses. He commends the poor widow who in his view gave far more than the major donors. Jesus doesn’t see her simply as an object of compassion or charity. She, like the widow of Zarephath who shares her last bit of food with Elijah, does something of great importance. 

The student peer position is vacant. If you are interested in learning more contact me!

Don’t forget… Pastor Chad is always happy to treat for coffee or lunch, or just to meet for a chat about what is on your mind.  You can schedule a meeting here.
