Worship: Sunday 5 July - Lay down your burdens


WELCOME/
Hello and welcome to worship at Upper Clyde Parish, where today  we’ll by laying our burdens down... as we listen to, and reflect on Jesus’ words in the Gospel of Matthew:
‘Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest’
So, whether you’ve been with us a long time, or you’re with us for the first time –
you are welcome here as we gather in our different places and unite in the One who calls us his people.

Before we move more fully into our time of worship, just a reminder that if you have
smaller people in the house, there’s a link to some worship-friendly all-age resources
that may be of help to make worship more accessible for them.

Over the month of June, we were exploring prayer.
As we move into a new month, we’re going to be spending a little time in Mathew’s gospel.
And, in this particular time of worship, we’ll be looking at those well-known words from
Chapter eleven – Jesus’ invitation to ... rest:
to rest in him and to give to him all the burdens you’re carrying.
It's a great invitation at any time, but especially in a time where anxiety and stress are a
little more heightened than usual.
I hope you enjoy this time of worship, and that you leave refreshed and re-energised
for the days ahead...

Just one note - which is to say that a statement from Session concerning opening the church building
will be coming over the course of this week - so will be posted in time for Sunday worship next.
