We've been talking for the last few weeks about the parables Jesus shared in Matthew's gospel, just before he entered Jerusalem for the last time. We have learned about the importance of being ready and staying ready as we wait. We've learned about the importance of using our talents. And this week, Jesus gives specific instructions about what to do and how to serve others. The story of the sheep and the goats is a familiar one - the sheep feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and visit the sick and the goats do none of these things. We will look at that story in the context of waiting and using our talents, and will talk about how we can serve others, Rev. Diane will help us explore this topic in a sermon titled, "Messy Ministry," based on Matthew 25: 31-46. See you Sunday, in person or online!
