Sermon: Whose Gospel is it Anyway? by Pastor Mark Harper
“O Radiant Dawn, splendor of eternal light, Sun of justice: Come, shine on those who live in darkness and in the shadow of death.”
-from Litany for Advent O Antiphons, Book of Common Worship
We will celebrate Communion this Sunday.
Celebrating the sacrament on Zoom creates a challenge. If you are worshiping from home, we recommend that you prepare your elements for communion – a cup of juice or wine; a piece of bread.
We may trust that the holy mystery of the Living Christ among us which we affirm in Communion is great enough to transcend the limitations of our distance from one another in a Zoom meeting in this hybrid form of worship.
Our services continue to be held in our Sanctuary. People are welcome to come to church for worship, and we will continue to live-stream our worship service.
Facemasks are currently optional at TPPC. You are welcome to wear facemasks during the worship service. We welcome each person to make their own decision about masking based on their particular situation and preference.
We recommend that everyone stay up-to-date with COVID-19 boosters (and other recommended vaccines).
For more information, access the TPPC Coronovirus page.
About Online Worship
We will gather by ZOOM (feed available starting about 10:45 AM).
Directions on how to connect and participate in virtual worship will be sent via a group.io e-mail. If you are unfamiliar with ZOOM we recommend you read up a little before the service.
We will set an informal and experimental mood, and ask forgiveness as we stumble along our way in a new medium. It will be fun.
