The Great Commission | May 31, 2026

Right before he ascends to heaven, Jesus gives his disciples some instructions. He sends them out into the world to “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you.” (Matthew 28:18-20)

This “Great Commission” is given not only to the 11 disciples who heard it in person, but to us as well! And so is the promise—the last words recorded in Matthew’s gospel: “Remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” This Sunday's sermon from Pastor Daniel Flucke digs into our instructions from Jesus and celebrates the promise of God’s ongoing presence with us. 

This week’s readings are 2 Corinthians 13:11-13, Psalm 8, and Matthew 28:16-20.
