LECTIONARY PLUS: Prepare for Worship This Sunday.
This Week’s Readings: Malachi 4:1–2a and Luke 21:5–19.

After watching the video, join Pastor Lillejord this Sunday for a combined worship service at 10:30 AM in the Sanctuary, bringing together all our communities—Mooring Line Drive, Emmanuel Communities, and Oil Well Road—for a shared time of worship and celebration.
