Dear Westminster Family,
This Sunday, August 30 we are celebrating Holy Communion in worship.  We invite you to bring bread and juice to outside worship or for worship in your home. You may be wondering what type of bread and drink to bring to the Lord's table. The Presbyterian Church welcomes bread and drink that are common to the area and represents God's grace in Jesus Christ. Bake bread or use a store bought item. If all you find in the kitchen cabinets on Sunday morning are hotdog buns and a capri sun, please use these items as your bread and juice.  We believe in a miraculous God who can transform what we bring to the table into a glorious feast for the kingdom. We look forward to celebrating communion with you this Sunday.

July 19, 2020 - Youth Sunday"

Accepted Answer

Fridge News    YouTube Video of Service   SoundCloud Recording of Service   Bulletin   Sermon Text: Freedom in the Eyes of the Lord, by Joe Kearney Hello. I’m very happy to be here giving a sermon for Youth Sunday. I have been looking forward to speaking to you all for a while now. I’d like to thank you all, for being here to listen to me talk for 15 minutes, and I’d also like to thank my parents, for being here to listen to me talk for almost 18 years.   Now, as the title of the sermon might imply, I’m here to talk about freedom. And I’d think I’m a decent person to ask, I recently graduated high school and am in the middle of what will probably be the freest summer of my entire life. So, I figured, if there’s ever a time to talk about it, it’s right now.   This sentiment is echoed by the various events occurring in the nation around us. I can’t even list all the ways I’ve found that the struggle between the freedom of the people and the structure needed to hold a civilization. But I can talk about one.   I [see/hope] [most/all] of you are wearing masks. I’m glad that you are taking precautions during this uncertain time. I’ve seen some of you over at the local Martin’s, where I work, and they don’t tend to be as flexible or willing on this particular issue. A common argument I hear people use to defend their choice is that being forced to wear one infringes on their freedom to wear whatever they like, and that the government should not control how one uses their own body. This is a good point, and the moral ambiguity surrounding this and similar issues should be handled with care.   But all of that aside, how do we approach this as Christians? We know that the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ grants us freedom and forgiveness from sin if we ask for it, but that doesn’t immediately free us from worldly consequences that may result, as I have learned countless times over the years. So, what does freedom in the eyes of the Lord mean? Well, one step to an answer is to crack open the Bible. One passage that came to me first Peter, starting at verse 3:16, offers a suggestion:   “Live as free men, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up from evil; live as servants of God. Show proper respect to everyone: Love the brotherhood of believers, fear God, honor the king.”   Now, this verse caused me some confusion when I first read it. I thought to myself, “How does it work that we can be free people while also remaining servants of the Lord?” I pondered this for a while, and the answer just came to me, as if it was sent straight to my brain: freedom isn’t about doing whatever you want. If that was true, America wouldn’t be a free country until I get to eat ice cream for dinner. Rather, freedom is about doing what we can to make the world a better place for everyone, because what use is freedom if we don’t do good things with it?   I’d like to leave you with another passage that comes from second Corinthians, 3:17:   “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”   Unfortunately, I may have confused some of you with the interpretations of freedom I have presented here, but I believe this verse makes it simpler: if we, as God’s children, do what is right and just in the eyes of the Lord, then He will grant us all true freedom.   Amen.
