Aldersgate United Methodist Church WELCOME! Thank you for visiting our Web Page.
We take this opportunity to invite you to explore our church. We are a community who worships, learns and serves together. You are welcome to come, be a part of our church family.
Week of February 22-28, 2021 This coming Sunday we will continue the sermon series on the Lord’s Prayer. I hope and pray that you have been spending some additional time not only praying the Lord’s Prayer but discovering some deeper wisdom and insight to this mysterious prayer especially this prayer in the native tongue of Jesus: Aramaic. The scripture for Sunday comes from the Jesus Seminar: Our Father in the heavens, Your name be revered. Impose your imperial rule, enact your will on earth as you have in heaven. Provide us with the bread we need for the day. Forgive our debts to the extent we have forgiven those in debt to us. And please don’t subject us to test after test, but rescue us from the evil one.
We will focus on “and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.” What does this mean? Does God actually lead us into temptation? Join us this Sunday as we live into a more beloved community through the Lord’s Prayer. Here is a previously used (4 1/2 minute) music video on the Lord’s Prayer in Aramaic for your edification. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtUkxLHD0-k
Grace, peace & harmony, Matthias
