Worship Notes
Welcome to worship at Westminster on this Sixth Sunday of Easter in which we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The liturgical season of Eastertide began on Easter Sunday (April 24) and concludes with our observance of Ascension Sunday (June 5) before the season of Pentecost begins on June 12. The liturgical color for Eastertide is white.
Throughout Eastertide, we reflect in worship on how we encounter and recognize the risen Christ in our midst. In today's scripture, we reflect on our encounter with God who lives in us, between us, and among us always through the gift of the "Spirit of Truth." The music through which we worship today reflects on this ever-present nature of the Divine that lives in us every day.
