Pewsheet Sunday October 5, 2008

Sunday 5th October, 2008 Twenty-First Sunday after Pentecost
Today’s Officiant is Fr Warren Huffa

TODAY WE WILL BE TALKING ABOUT We are all familiar with the 10 commandments, but often mistake them for rules to be obeyed rather than an expression of the kind of community God wants us to be. There is an important difference.

WELCOME Please join us for breakfast in the hall after the 8am service or morning tea after the 10am service. At 10am please find all prayers and hymns projected onto the sanctuary walls.

THE PRAYER FOR TODAY Almighty God, your Son Jesus was the stone rejected by the builders, and, by your doing, he has been made the chief cornerstone: grant that, by the power of his Spirit working in us, we may become living stones built up into your dwelling place, a temple holy and acceptable to you; through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God , for ever and ever. Amen
