In this fifth in our seven-part series on the Sermon on the Mount, we look at what Jesus has to tell us about what it means to follow the way of God instead of the way of money, as well as we look at how this teaching can impact our professional lives. This Sunday is also communion, so make sure to have some bread and a drink prepared for after the sermon.

A big thanks goes out this week to Agatha Friesen, Susan Rempel, Elvira Hamm, David Kruse, Margaret Thiessen, Bradley Wright and Henry Dueck for helping to bring this service together! Also a big thank you to Charlene Sawatzky for putting together the children's feature for today!
