2. Welcome to St. Peter! We welcome you to the house of our true and living God for worship this Fifteenth Sunday after our Lord’s Pentecost as we continue a four week series of services under the theme, “The Believer Hears Jesus’ Warnings…” In today’s gospel lesson Jesus warns his followers that those who exalt themselves in this life will be humbled in the life to come. So today’s hymns, prayers and readings from the Bible emphasize how the Christian’s life is one of humility and humble service to the Lord and each other, motivated by the changeless love and grace of Jesus!
