About this episode

This episode features a Mother's Day reflection guided by Jesus' words in the Gospel of John, focusing on hope and memories shared with loved ones.

This week in worship we are guided by Jesus’ words in the Gospel of John, a section called the “Farewell Discourse” where Jesus prepares the disciples for life in his absence. It can be a somber text, but this week we read Jesus’ words with a hopeful lens, made up of memories shared with those we have loved. Sue Madsen will offer our Mother's Day Reflection and a donation to Centrica Rose Harbor Place will be made in her honor. Learn more about this hospice facility below. We’ll also recognize our High School Seniors during First Steps and a special video at the end of worship.
