June 6 Worship

Today is the Second Sunday after Pentecost, and the gospel reading is Mark 3:20-35. Today for the first time in at least fifteen months, the deacons distributed the bread and the cup to the congregation in the traditional way. Our hymns included O for a Thousand Tongues, Let Us Talents and Tongues Employ, and Let There Be Peace on Earth.

Steve Moore was our presiding elder, Gretchen Bryant was our guest organist, and Jenny Gilles served as videographer. Paul Hederstrom introduced his grandson, also named Paul Hederstrom, whom we honored upon his graduation this past week from West Geauga High School.

Below is the video of this morning's worship service, and below that is the order of worship.
