Saturday 5:00 PM
Matthew 18:15-20 is the Gospel Reading this week at "Epiclesis". In this Gospel reading Jesus gives his disciples instructions on how to handle disputes and differences they may have with each other. As the word of the living Christ who is among us every time we gather (18:20), our text speaks clearly to the very common challenge of resolving conflict among Christians when they occur. We hope to see you Saturday at 5:00 PM.
The lectionary readings for this Saturday's Service: Ezekiel 33:1-11; Psalm 119:33-40; Romans 13:1-14; The Gospel according to St. Matthew 18:15-20.
The "Epiclesis Service" ("Epiclesis" means to "call upon" the Holy Spirit) is led this week by Fr. Terry J. Hedrick, PhD and Steve Rue leads the music team. Child care is provided for children up to age 5.

Sunday @ 9:15 & 10:45
Senior Pastor Jeff Gannon will begin a new fall sermon series. Every fall, Pastor Jeff preaches a sermon series that "re-calibrates" the church to its vision, mission, and purpose as originally discerned in 1995 when Chapel Hill was formed.
This Sunday, as a means of launching the sermon series, Pastor Jeff will be preaching a message titled, "Have We Learned the Message of the Loaves?" This sermon is based on the story of the feeding of the multitudes according to Mark.
In Jeff's words, "Like building a house, we are going to build a house of what it means to follow Jesus and to live in the available power and resources of the Kingdom of God on earth, even as in heaven. We will begin this Sunday by pouring the basement, if you will. I hope that you will be present! Remember.... if you want to be involved in sermon study and discussion groups, please contact Fr. Terry at frterrywichita@cox.net."
