This week coming up...

Keystone United Church of Christ

Sundays 10:30 a.m.
Come see how we love!

Sunday November 3

10:30 a.m. Worship- All Saints Day

Bring hearts ready to commemorate loved ones, who have crossed over. We will share names of those who have passed as we remember dear ones. In worship, with candle lighting before communion.

Remember "fall back" re-set clocks back an hour to standard time.

A powerful text from Isaiah raises the question of what kinds of actions are most pleasing to God. All the right and dutiful burnt sacrifices? Care and compassion for stranger and outcast? Then, our teaching story from the Gospel of Luke shows how one who really kind of ripping off those in his community, was moved to make restitution, after Jesus came to his house (and caught the public attention of everyone else wondering what Jesus was thinking!)
