January 31 Worship

Today's service uses the appointed epistle reading to concentrate on table fellowship. Music includes a prélude called Welcome, a postlude called We Can Eat, We Can Drink, and the popular chorus, Seek Ye First. After the main message, we'll also share in a performance of the Disciples hymn (#400 in the Chalice Hymnal), When You Do This, Remember Me. Many thanks to the Rev. Brian Nixon of First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Keokuk, Iowa for granting me permission to use it.
