FOURTH SUNDAY IN LENT (Laetare)

Exodus 16:2–21
Galatians 4:21–31
John 6:1–15

The Lord Feeds His People

The Lord provided bread from heaven for His people in the wilderness (Ex. 16:2–21). Now He who is Himself the living bread from heaven miraculously provides bread for the five thousand (John 6:1–15). This takes place near the time of the Passover, after a great multitude had followed Jesus across the sea, and when He went up on a mountain. Seen in this way, Jesus is our new and greater Moses, who releases us from the bondage of Mount Sinai and makes us free children of the promise (Gal. 4:21–31). Five loaves become twelve baskets—that is, the five books of Moses find their goal and fulfillment in Christ, whose people continue steadfastly in the doctrine and fellowship of the twelve apostles, and in the breaking and receiving of the bread of life, which is the body of Christ together with His precious blood, and in the prayers (Acts 2:41–47). So it is that God’s people “shall not hunger or thirst” (Is. 49:8–13). For He abundantly provides for us in both body and soul.

Bible memory work

We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life. (Romans 6:4)

Who We Are

Our church is a member of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod.  With the universal Christian Church, the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod teaches and responds to the love of the Triune God:  the Father, creator of all that exists; Jesus Christ, the Son, who became human to suffer and die for the sins of all human beings and to rise to life again in the ultimate victory over death and Satan; and the Holy Spirit, who creates faith through God’s Word and Sacraments.  The three person of the Trinity are co-equal and co-eternal, on God.

Our congregation accepts and preaches the Bible-based teachings of Martin Luther that inspired the reformation of the Christian Church in the 16th century.  The teachings of Luther and the reformers can be summarized in three phrases:  Grace along, Faith alone, Scripture alone.

We are a committed group of Christians who ;

(1) gather together to worship, praise, and thank our God for the gift of forgiveness, salvation, and eternal life given to us through the life, death, and resurrection of His Son Jesus Christ; and

(2) scatter to share with our neighbor that the message of mercy, life, and hope is not confined to a group of people in a building, rather it is Good News for all people.

Where We Are

We are located at 407 W Jackson Ave, directly across the street from the University of Mississippi at the intersection of Jackson Avenue West and Rebel Drive. The entrance to the church parking lot is a small blacktop driveway approximately 30 feet east of the intersection. It may not look like it, but this drive takes you up the hill to the church’s parking lot. It can be hard to see.
