This Sunday, the second after Pentecost, Jesus raises a young man from the dead. The crowd following Him spreads the news through the country: "God has come to help His people!"
On Trinity Sunday, we sing "Holy, Holy, Holy" as we reflect on the mysterious triune nature of our Almighty God. Pastor Bestian will give a message based on the readings for the day.
