Welcome to our online worship for Sunday, August 28th. We’re so happy you’ve chosen to worship with us either live at 10:30 a.m. or at a time of your later convenience. Luke’s gospel often tells the conversations that Jesus had while he was attending a party of some kind.  In today’s gospel lesson from Luke, Jesus is again at a meal in someone’s home, when he tells a parable about not thinking too highly of oneself and being humble.  Humility is a difficult virtue to pursue and yet pride, or self-conceit, is so dangerous a sin that it is the call of all who follow Jesus to seek to be humble, that we may be in a place spiritually to be able to encounter God’s presence more.
