When we stay with God and God's word for long periods of time, amazing things happen... Peter proclaims that new birth grows from the seed of God's enduring word.

The scripture lessons for Sunday ~ April 26 are: Luke 24:13-35; I Peter 1:17-23; Acts 2:14a, 36-41; Psalm 116 From Psalm 116 comes an invitation: "Let's keep our promises to God, as we offer our love to God's world (and our "church") through our gifts..."
