Fourth Sunday in Lent – March 14, 2021

Please have some bread and “fruit of the vine” available for Holy Communion as you join in our virtual worship (above).

This Sunday the fourth of the Old Testament promises provides a baptismal lens this Lent; this is the promise God makes to Moses, that those who look on the bronze serpent will live. In today’s gospel Jesus says he will be lifted up on the cross like the serpent, so that those who look to him in faith will live. When we receive the sign of the cross in baptism, that cross becomes the sign we can look to in faith for healing, for restored relationship to God and each other, and for hope when we are dying.
