4th Sunday after the Epiphany Follow Me - What Have You to do With Us? Preacher: Pastor Emil Sazon

This Sunday is the 4th Sunday after Epiphany and we continue our series study, FOLLOW ME, and our theme this Sunday is the question of the man with the unclean ...spirit, "WHAT HAVE YOU YOU TO DO WITH US, JESUS OF NAZARETH?" This question has specific implications to the one who is asking this question as we read in the Gospel Mark 1:21-28. And for us, asking this question, what do you think is the significant implication to all of us? The unclean (evil) spirits knew Jesus and also knew that they will be destroyed in due time. But for us, Jesus is everything because we are everything to Jesus! Amen! Join us tomorrow Sunday, January 31, 2021, 10:00 AM @https://www.facebook.com/stpaulfremont See more

Laity Sunday Pastor: Rev. Johann Osias

SPUMC THANKSGIVING Outreach Ministry opportunity. For donations or inquiries you may coordinate with Cherryl Harmon (5109153798, email:[email protected])

Laity Sunday is a special time when the lay people of the church often pause to consider their varied gifts for ministry, inside and outside the walls of the church building. Please join us online (FB & Youtube Live) on Sunday October 18, 2020 at 10 AM. The sermon will focus on Exodus 33:12-23, the story where Moses feels on the edge of his leadership challenge and his willingness to witness to the glory of God in the midst of unfaithfulness and idolatry of his people. Message Title: A Leader on the Edge - Seeing God's Glory.

The service is a rebroadcast of our livestream service this morning, as we experience technical difficulties during the earlier broadcast. Again we apologize for the inconvenience it brought you following the earlier broadcast. We hope that you will find an appropriate time during the week when you can use this service as a moment of reflection and solitude with God. Keep safe and stay healthy. May God bless us everyone!
