Seeing Past the Critics

May 31, 2020 | Rev. Dr. Chris J. Hayes

Passage: Acts 2:1-13

Today we celebrate Pentecost, the birth of the church. The message from senior pastor Rev. Dr. Chris J. Hayes "Seeing Past the Critics" focuses on new and different things God does in our world, and the criticism that sometimes comes with those new things. The scripture reading for today is Acts 2:1-13.

Others in worship leadership include Rev. Molly Hayes, Lead Pastor at Church of the Good Shepherd, Michelle Clark, Caring and Support Ministries, FUMCA and Sean Hale, Director of Music & Worship, FUMCA. Music is lead by organist Dr. Jamila Javadova-Spitzberg, along with soloist Libby Stage.
