Trust God

An excerpt from Proverbs 3:1-12 (NRSV)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own insight. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

Reflection from Butler Sharpe:
As we look forward to a New Year, a new time (after such an extremely difficult period), let us remember and reflect on the ‘steadfast love’ of our Lord. No matter the time, experience or situation, when we think on our lives, God has always been faithful, loving and true.

He loves us and we can trust him. May we continue our journey, in his Grace.

For further study and prayer, the readings assigned for today are:
Psalm 110; Proverbs 3:1-12; James 4:11-17

Painting by Jon Dutcher, “Hemingway’s Path.

Music
“He’ll Make a Way
”
Spiritual written by Byron J. Smith,
sung by the Spirit Chorale of Los Angeles

“I know the Lord will make a way!
I know the Lord will make a way, oh yes!
If you trust and never doubt,
He will bring you out!
I know the Lord will make a way!”

Welcome to St. Gregory's – virtually! We know that the church is not the building in which we worship – but the people who worship and share God’s love with the world. In this time of social distancing, we will practice connectivity in new and powerful ways, for we know we all are connected as one in the Lord. Life is very different than we knew it to be, and yet our anchor in God’s love remains the same. All shall be well!

We are people from all walks of life and all parts of Chicagoland. Most people who worship here didn’t grow up Episcopalian, but seek to radiate God’s grace by gathering community and sharing joy and hope in the world. Join us however works for you: participate in Zoom worship, follow our livestream, help us give to the community, read with our kids, or even be a pen pal to get to know someone new.

Online Worship

Everyone is experiencing the Pandemic in different ways. Many people are experiencing deeper loss than they ever have before, and we are here to support them during this time. If you are experiencing loss and grief, we are here to pray with you, talk with you, and help financially.

The Body of Christ exists to care for each other. Sometimes we can be generous, and sometimes we receive generosity. Both are equal acts of faith and grace, and one cannot exist without the other.
