God strengthens us Sunday by Sunday with His Word and the Means of Grace, including the Preaching of His Word, Holy Communion, and the Fellowship of Brothers and Sisters in Christ.
This Sunday the Holy Gospel speaks Jesusâ parable of the Wicked Tenants (Luke 20:9-20) and then reports His question to us all: âWhat then is this that is written: âThe stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstoneâ? Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, and when it falls on anyone, it will crush him.â
Jesusâ parable and the question open a way for us to understand why people rejected Christ 2000 years ago and why we still reject Him today. We are led to grasp what it means for us to receive Christ as our Cornerstone.
Fellowship will follow the Service as usual, and we will be continuing our study of what God's Word says about Satan. Bible Study will be available at 10:30 am on the same Zoom link as used for Worship. The Sunday Bible Study Guide has been posted with the Service Folder. You can access this Sundayâs resources directly at this link.
Many of us enjoyed visiting with Pr Robert Stevens and his wife Laurie last Sunday. Mt Calvary Congregation officially Called Pr Stevens to be our next full time Pastor. We pray for him and his wife, for his current Congregation, and for our Congregation that Godâs Will be done. Because of Pr Stevensâ commitment to focusing his current Congregation on Lent, Holy Week, and Easter Day (17 April), we will not likely hear any decision from him until after 17 April.
May God make it possible for you to join us in person or on Zoom at 9am this Sunday for hearing God's Word and offering prayer, praise, and thanksgiving to God.
If you cannot be among God's people in person this Sunday, you can join us by Zoom.

You can access this Sundayâs resources directly at this link. The Service Folder and the Bible Study Guide will both be there.

Lenten Midweek Services continue this Wednesday, 6 April at 6pm. A light supper will be provided by our Hospitality Committee between 5 and 5:15pm. More details will come in another email on Wednesday, including Zoom information for whose who choose to worship from home.
