God's Community Garden August 30

August 30, 2026 — Fourteenth Sunday after Pentecost
Rev. Anne Jernberg Scalfaro (she/her)

For our final week in our year-long theme—Abide & Grow: Cultivating the Fruit of the Spirit—we return to our theme texts of John 15 and Galatians 5. Sunday’s sermon will focus on: our rootedness in God’s love, the gift of each of the nine Fruit of the Spirit that grow from within (Love, Peace, Goodness, Self-Control, Patience, Faithfulness, Joy, Kindness, Gentleness), and how, together as a group of faithfully rooted and fruit-full people, we become a nourishing Community Garden for the world. Don’t miss this sweet, juicy conclusion to a wonderful year of spiritual growth together!
