O thou who is happy for a poor spirit,
you shall live in the kingdom of heaven.
O thou who is lovely for your mourning heart,
you shall be comforted by God’s broken heart.

Scripture: Matthew 6:9-15
Sermon: “Pray In This Way (II)”
Throughout human history, people have prayed, asking God to meet their needs.

This Sunday we will hear Jesus’s teaching on how we are to pray for our needs. We invite you to worship and learn with us.
