Phil Campbell recently retired from Northern Light United Church in Alaska with words from 1st John...God is Love...Perfect Love casts out all fear. There is no fear in Love. Let us gather together in Love. The opening hymn, as usual, This is the Day that the Lord has made in English and Tlingit. Then came the Welcome followed by the singing of "Awake, Awake", the Lord's Prayer. and the reading of Mark 4:35-41. </div><div class="ydp92d5d7c8yiv3337189590ydp785de6ayiv5544293872ydp974d43ceyiv6086962015ydpd64fc3ebyiv6137727077ydpc2b5b55yahoo-style-wrap" style="font-family:Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;"><br></div><div class="ydp92d5d7c8yiv3337189590ydp785de6ayiv5544293872ydp974d43ceyiv6086962015ydpd64fc3ebyiv6137727077ydpc2b5b55yahoo-style-wrap" style="font-family:Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;"><a href="http://Sermon on Perfect Love" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Sermon on Perfect Love</a><br></div><div class="ydp92d5d7c8yiv3337189590ydp785de6ayiv5544293872ydp974d43ceyiv6086962015ydpd64fc3ebyiv6137727077ydpc2b5b55yahoo-style-wrap" style="font-family:Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;"><br>Needless to say, Children's Time started with the question from Pastor Phil, "Have you ever been afraid?" </div><div class="ydp92d5d7c8yiv3337189590ydp785de6ayiv5544293872ydp974d43ceyiv6086962015ydpd64fc3ebyiv6137727077ydpc2b5b55yahoo-style-wrap" style="font-family:Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;"><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
