34 “Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. 35 For I have come to ‘set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’; 36 and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’ 37 He who loves father or mother more...
Mitch Glaser Shalom good morning it’s great to be here. It’s nice to be with you and, thank God we’re all here. You know, that’s a real blessing, isn’t it?

In the Lord’s prayer, Jesus gives us a guideline as to how to pray. Now, you can just repeat the words and you know we pray the prayer at the beginning of the service. That’s good!

It’s the word I felt to give to those who are being baptized but also to all of us. All of us as we’re facing what could be very uncertain and difficult days. I don’t know if you follow the news but it’s not good, is it? We don’t know what the next step is going to be.
