The Gospel Reading will be an account of the Transfiguration as recorded in Mark 9. 2-9. The supporting readings are 2 Kings 2. 1-12 in which the writer of the book of Kings brings us to the time when Elisha was about to take over prophetic leadership from Elijah and 2 Corinthians 4. 3-6 where Paul wrote that the will of the devil is to keep people in ignorance but God’s will is to give the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. There will be parallel Children’s Ministry and following worship, Coffee Hour in the hall on the third floor of Klimentska 18.

My sermon from last Sunday is now available to listen to on our church website. If you have missed it or would like to listen to it again follow the link. The sermon is centered around the pre-existence of Christ when the Universe was formed which is foundational to Christian faith and includes the reflection on the Trinity.
Celebratory Prayer for birthdays and wedding anniversaries or any other such occasion is a part of our regular service. You are invited to send to me the details of your birthday or any special occasion for which you would like us to pray, by email.
Yours in His Service,
Nathanial
