“Strong in the Spirit”
Laity Sunday 2025
The kids at Mother’s Day Out know the rhyme and hand motions we all learned as children:
“Here’s the church, and here’s the steeple.
Open the doors, and see all the people.”
Somewhere along the way, we learn that the church IS the people, with or without a steeple! As we will be singing this Sunday:
“I am the church, you are the church,
we are the church together!”
That’s what Laity Sunday is all about. Many thanks to Charlotte Hemard, our Lay Leader, for all she does all year ’round for the community of faith at Algiers UMC, and for leading our worship this week. When we open the doors on Sunday, may you be counted among all God’s people!
