Fourth Sunday in Lent, March 19th, 2023

 Fourth Sunday in Lent, 

also called Laetare Sunday, March 19th, 2023

In the Fourth Chapter of St. Paul's Epistle written to the Galatians he speaks of Abraham and Sarah.  Keep in mind that we know from Scripture that Sarah and Abraham were barren and could not have children.  And as a result of desperation, Sarah urged Abraham to have a son through the slave-girl, Hagar.  But through God's grace and power, He made it possible ultimately for Sarah to have a son even at her advanced age.  In bringing up this example St. Paul it pointing out the fact that with God all things are possible.  With the grace of God all things are made new.  Through God's grace we are made new creatures.  As such, we should not return to our old ways.  As daughters and sons of the Most High, we should always remember to Whom we belong.  We should always remember that we are a new creature.  We should always act as a True Child of God in all aspects of our life.  God is Our Father and we are His children.  St. Paul is suggesting that we need to remember this fact and act accordingly inn all aspects of our life.

St. Margaret Church worships every Sunday morning at 10:30 AM at the Chapel at Marquette Manor, which is located at 8140 N. Township Line Road on the Northwest side of Indianapolis.

NOTE:  Keep in mind that we must enter in the main entrance of the lobby and sign in before we go to the chapel.  

Please Join us as we gather together as God's family to:  hear the Word of God; listen as God speaks to each one of us in our hearts; worship God in song and in word; listen to the King James Bible and the 1928 Book of Common Prayer; and, finally, receive Our Blessed Lord in Holy Communion so that we can be nourished for the journey we call life.  Take one hour out of your busy schedule to worship God, to honour God, to acknowledge the need for God in your life.
