April 5: Palm Sunday
Isaiah spoke the word of the Covenant Lord’s promise that “I will divide him a portion with the many.”
This tells us that the Father gives to the Son “the many,” who in the previous verse are the transgressors he accounts righteous. That’s us, the church, the bride of Christ. The Son doesn’t wait for the bride to propose to him. May it never be! He is the perfect husband who makes the bride perfect even before the marriage. The Son dies for his own, and they are his reward for his sacrificial work. This is the gospel. Come hear it preached and enacted in the Supper this Sunday.
Sunday school for children and adults is up and running! Coffee and other treats are served at 9:15, teaching begins at 9:30, and we break to get ready for worship at 10:15.
Also, our Easter Sunday Lunch is next Sunday. Please use the contact us page for more details.
