November 1, 2026

Our Lectionary readings for this Sunday, November 1, will be in observance of All Saints Day: Revelation 7:9-17; Psalm 34:1-10, 22; 1 John 3:1-3; and Matthew 5:1-12.

The Beatitudes of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount are some of the most cherished of Jesus' teachings. George MacDonald has a good reminder for us:

"The words of the Lord are the seed sown by the sower. Into our hearts they must fall that they may grow. Meditation and prayer must water them, and obedience keep them in the sunlight. Thus they will bear fruit for the Lord's gathering."

We will observe Holy Communion the first Sunday of November, November 1.

We will have a meeting of the Session after morning worship, the first Sunday of November.
