Lessons From the Abbey || Worshipful Work
John 13:3-5, 12-15 & 1 Corinthians 12:4-11
St. Columba arrived on the tiny island of Iona, Scotland, in 563 AD, and it’s been a vibrant place of worship ever since with hundreds of pilgrims still making the long journey to immerse themselves in community, worship, and work. God speaks clearly on Iona—sometimes in the most unexpected ways—with lessons for how we might live more fully and faithfully today, ways we are exploring in our summer worship series, "Lessons from the Abbey."
This weekend, our sermon focuses on how God shows up in our work—the work we are paid to do, the ordinary tasks we must do, and the places where we offer our gifts in hopes of making a difference to others.
Lee Hardy writes, “…through work we realize ourselves as image-bearers of God; through work we participate in God’s ongoing creative activity; through work we follow Christ in his example of redemptive suffering for the sake of others; through work we serve God himself as we serve those with whom he identifies.”
How might we apply this wisdom to all of our work—tasks big and small, paid and unpaid, seemingly significant and those often deemed insignificant?

Lessons from the Abbey || Nothing Wasted
Psalm 24 & Genesis 26-2:4a
St. Columba first arrived on the tiny island of Iona, Scotland, in 563 AD, and it’s been a vibrant place of worship ever since. While monastic life ceased with the start of the Protestant Reformation in 1560, hundreds of pilgrims still make the long journey to Iona by train, bus, and ferry to immerse themselves in community, worship, and work in this thin space where heaven and earth seemingly collide. God speaks clearly on Iona—sometimes in the most unexpected ways—with lessons for how we might live more fully and faithfully today. Join us this summer as we explore lessons from the abbey in hopes of finding ourselves more readily available to embrace and nurture the gifts of hospitality, community, creation care, and worshipful work together.
This morning, our sermon focuses on communal practices of environmental stewardship that can make a lasting impact for generations to come. Together we will look at scriptures describing the goodness of creation and ponder how we might embrace creation care as a spiritual practice. We will also celebrate the sacrament of baptism and enjoy the gift of community.

Lessons From the Abbey || Holy Hospitality
Mark 6:1-13
St. Columba first arrived on the tiny island of Iona, Scotland, in 563 AD, transforming it into a vibrant place of worship. While monastic life ceased with the start of the Protestant Reformation in 1560, hundreds of pilgrims continue to make the long journey to Iona by train, bus, and ferry to immerse themselves in community, worship, and work in this thin space where heaven and earth seemingly collide. God speaks clearly on Iona—sometimes in the most unexpected ways—instilling wisdom for how we might live more fully and faithfully today.
Join us this morning as our new series, Lessons from the Abbey, begins with pondering how we might embrace and nurture the gift of holy hospitality wherever we are.

What If...? || What If...Jesus is Still Healing People?
Psalm 130 and Mark 5:21-43
Walking on water. Giving sight to the blind. Parting a sea. Many of the stories in the Bible can appear too good to be true. But what if God is still actively at work in our lives and the world around us, calling us by name, and inviting us to live into a reality that is more wondrous than what we currently see or believe?
This week we will explore several miracles, one that interrupts another, and wrestle with how we might participate in our own healing alongside Jesus.
Join us this morning as we ponder how we might be called to change through Jesus' healing acts in the world—as we are beckoned to be part of the miracle.

What If…? || What If Jesus is Still Calming Storms
Psalm 9:9-20 and Mark 4:35-41
Walking on water. Giving sight to the blind. Parting a sea. Many of the stories in the Bible can appear too good to be true. But what if God is still actively at work in our lives and the world around us, calling us by name, and inviting us to live into a reality that is more wondrous than what we currently see or believe?
This week we will hear a familiar account of Jesus calming a storm by rebuking the wind and commanding the sea to be still—all before inviting the disciples to examine their faith and their fear.
Do we have faith to believe Jesus still has the power to calm storms today? If so, what role do we play in the process? Join us this morning as we ponder these questions and more in hopes of seeing how Jesus is still calming storms—and beckoning us to be part of the miracle.

What If…? || What If...God Can Still Use Faith the Size of a Mustard Seed?
2 Corinthians 5:6-17 and Mark 4:26-34
Walking on water. Giving sight to the blind. Parting a sea. Many of the stories in the Bible can appear too good to be true. But what if God is still actively at work in our lives and the world around us, calling us by name, and inviting us to live into a reality that is more wondrous than what we currently see or believe?
Last Sunday we witnessed four young people profess their faith in Jesus and join the church. What happens now? Is their work finished? Or is it just beginning? What if the answer to both questions is "yes?"
Join us this Sunday as we ponder how the smallest amount of faith might be enough to guide us as long as our focus is on pleasing God--something that might feel like an impossible task but is actually an incredible privilege.

What If God is Still Beckoning Us to Not Lose Heart?
Psalm 138 & 2 Corinthians 4:13-5:1
Walking on water. Giving sight to the blind. Parting a sea. Many of the stories in the Bible can appear too good to be true. But what if God is still actively at work in our lives and the world around us, calling us by name, and inviting us to live into a reality that is more wondrous than what we currently see or believe?
Join us this morning as we examine a beloved Psalm and the words of Paul before pondering what it might look like for us to not lose heart, but instead give thanks to God with our whole hearts.
It's also Confirmation Sunday, and we have the joy of welcoming four youth who will profess their faith in Jesus and join the church! Your presence will be a tangible show of support as these individuals take their next step in their journey of faith.
