Come to the Water
A SUMMER SERMON SERIES
This summer our worship services will focus on water. Beginning on June 26 we will start a seven-week series titled ‘Come to the Water.’ Water runs throughout the scriptures, beginning with the primordial waters of Genesis and ending with the river of life in Revelation. In the gospels, Jesus promises ‘living water.’ In the biblical stories, water is a sign of God’s creative, liberating, redemptive love.
Water runs through the stories of our lives too. This summer, as you are out and about, we would like everyone to collect a small sample of water. It could be from a trip to the ocean, or from a lake you kayak on, or a stream you walk next too; it could be from the hose you use to water your garden, or from the rains that fall (and keep falling) in Portland. We will pour them all together during our service at Wildwood on September 4.

At Portland Mennonite Church we gather on Sundays as a community to sing our gratitude and praise for God's steadfast love, to confess our sins and trust in God's amazing grace, to hear the blunt and hopeful Word of God's gospel, and to offer our hopes and pain to God in prayer. We are sent out to be God's people in and for God's world.
You are very welcome to join us. Our Sunday morning Worship Service begins at 10:45 a.m. Come as you are. Bring whatever faith, hopes, or doubts that you have. If you have any questions, please contact us.
