When faced with a hard decision do you ever wish that God would just give you a clear and unequivocal sign as to what to do? Me too. Signs from God just don’t seem to come now as they apparently did in the Bible. On this Sunday which is also the 87th Anniversary of Church Union (the formation of the United Church of Canada), the Scriptures point to the challenge of determining what is right or what God wants us to do. It’s tough. But I will look at ways that might help.
From the Scriptures we will hear 1 Samuel 8: 4-11, 16-20 and Mark 3: 20-35
I have titled my Sermon, “Listen for God”
See you Sunday,
Blessings,
Larry Wright

Youth at Spirit West – Are you between the ages of 12 and 16 or between the ages of 17 and 19? Are you interested in getting together once a month as teens or young adults of Spirit West for fun, interaction, (the possibilities are not endless, but pretty broad)? If the answer is yes, I would like to start something in September. Email me at spiritwest.minister@telus.net with your name, age, level of interest and any ideas you have about what could be done.
