1.03 - Second Sunday of Christmas (Intro to Galatians)
The GOSPEL According to St Paul ~ Galatians 1:2b
1:2b--7
Join us for a message on an introduction to the letter to Galatians, and sign up for our
Wednesdays or Fridays Bible Study .
1.10 - First Sunday After Epiphany
BAPTIZED as God’s Children Luke 3:15
3:15--17, 21
21--22
1410 Foothill Dr.
Vista, CA 92084
FIRST Lutheran Church
John the Baptist insists that he is not the Messiah; instead he points ahead
to one who is coming. And whether the voice of God was heard by all or only
by Jesus, God settles the matter: Jesus is God’s beloved Son.
1.17 - Second Sunday After Epiphany
Believe In CHRIST ~ John 2:1
2:1--11
Turning water to wine at the wedding at Cana is described as the first of
Jesus’ signs. Through many such epiphanies, Jesus reveals that he bears
God’s creative power and joyful presence into the world.
1 .24 - Third Sunday After Epiphany
Put Your Eyes Upon JESUS ~ Luke 4:14
4:14--21
Near the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry, he visits his hometown of Nazareth.
In the words of Isaiah, he states and claims his identity, purpose, and mission.
1.31 - Fourth Sunday After Epiphany (ONE WORSHIP TOGETHER @ 9AM
9AM))
Be OPEN! Luke 4:21
4:21--30
The listeners were probably not expecting Jesus to announce the fulfillment of
the Isaiah passage today! Yet, Jesus lived that passage by bringing good
news, releasing the captive, healing the blind, and freeing the oppressed.
