We are now at the Fourth Sunday of Easter and I had hoped to be back in worship in our sanctuary by now. We will still need to be patient. The time will come and what a joyful time it will be. Nevertheless, our gracious God has provided means such as this online worship to continue to feed us with His Word.
Attached to this email are both the video link for the worship service as well as an order of service to follow along with. Like last week, if you wish to turn on the “closed captions†function on the video, everything the congregation needs to speak or sing will be displayed at the bottom of the screen. This week our focus in the Gospel lesson is on our Good Shepherd, how delightfully appropriate for a congregation called Shepherd of the Valley. Listen this week to the Shepherd’s voice for He knows you by name and has laid down His life for you, His sheep!
