During our service, you will hear the passage from Jeremiah 31:31-34 concerning God’s news to Israel that a new covenant shall be written upon the hearts of all God’s people, and that they will know God directly. It is a beautiful and comforting passage.

What we know from the events that occur after Jeremiah, all the way through the New Testament, and up to today is that life can still be difficult. Even as God’s beloved creation, we may have hard times. The passage from the gospel of John 12:20-33 gives us information and imagery to help us understand the crucifixion Jesus experienced, and to help encourage us at those times in our lives that we too may the feel pain of the crosses we bear.

See you Sunday –
