IValterVipperman celebrated the 8:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m: services with holy Communion at the St. John's Angljcan Church this Sunday. In his sermon. he emphasized how we may depend upon Jesus. Jesus has complete authority, has commanded action, and ile has comfort always. "And Lo, i am with you always, even to the end of the age". Notice the order of ,Jesus' last words. "i have all the authority - You make disciples - I am with you." Everything that we are called to do is sandwiched between Christ's authority and His living presence. "l am with you as you leave this moun- . lain. lain with you as you Baptize and teach. .1 am with you when you suc- ceed. when altgoes your way in your joys and triumphs. But I am there too when people want you to stay in the narrow confines of "how it used to be", when lying to yourself becomes very inconvenient, when teaching others means. rebuking the ungodly, and puts you into conflict with the powers that be. I am with you when you fail. when your goals and dreams come crashing down like the Challenger." -Jesus doesn't say - If you do these things. I will be with you. if you obey. If You're good enough. Ile says to me in the quiet moments when I am ready 16 give up on life, I am with you to rebuild and embrace life once again. 1 am with you as you tremble in fear against impossible odds. As long as you live in a world that needs you to do what 1 have sent you to do. till the enol of the age. tam with you. That is comfort always. After the service.
