God’s might

An excerpt from Psalm 77:11-14 (NRSV)
I will call to mind the deeds of the Lord; I will remember your wonders of old. I will meditate on all your work, and muse on your mighty deeds. Your way, O God, is holy. What god is so great as our God? You are the God who works wonders; you have displayed your might among the peoples.

Reflection from Fran Ingram:
When we are feeling down and forsaken in depression, doubt, or sorrow, we need to remember God’s words and miracles. He gave the Israelites food and water in the wilderness. He saved Daniel in the lion’s den. Through Jesus, he healed the sick and blind and multiplied the few loaves and fishes to feed thousands. He is still performing miracles today. We need to open our eyes and hearts to his power and great deeds.

For further study and prayer, the readings assigned for today are:
Psalm 77; Proverbs 30:1-9; Matthew 4:1-11

Music:
”Didn’t My Lord Deliver Daniel?”
Traditional spiritual arr. Moses Hogan

“He delivered Daniel from the lion’s den,
Jonah from the belly of the whale,
And the Hebrew children from the fiery furnace,
Then why not every man?”

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.
