The Courage to be Free

June 29, 2025

The Third Sunday of Pentecost

This Sunday we welcome back Sarah Jessup Street as our guest pastor. Her message is based on our gospel in Luke chapter 9. In today’s gospel, Jesus is unwavering in his commitment to his mission in Jerusalem and will not be swayed by pettiness. He calls his disciples to a similar single-mindedness.
