Devotion From Pastor Kathryn: July 22, 2021

7/22/2021

 
For the next five Sundays, our Gospel reading will be taken from the Gospel of John, chapter six. The focus will be on Jesus – the bread of life.

This weekend, I’ll be at the Primes’ new home in Rescue with six Confirmands and two fathers. The youth will be having a lot of FUN together, we’ll pray under the stars, we’ll do some bubble praying, and we will share meals together. We will also watch our Sunday morning service, along with all of you, as Pr. Brian Claasen leads us in worship.

As we all lift up the bread together during Holy Communion, we will recall Jesus’ words for us to “do this in remembrance of me.” We will celebrate with you that Jesus is the bread of life.

When we sit around the fire pit on Saturday night, I’ll make sure that we pray for all of you.

Please hold all of our Confirmands in your prayers, as they learn about Jesus’ love, have fun together and celebrate that we are a part of the Elim family.

“Jesus said, ‘I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.’” (John 6: 35)

In Christ’s love,
Pastor Kathryn
