A faithful person eventually gets to the point at which s\/he can say to God, &#8220;I don&#8217;t know where you&#8217;re going, but I know that wherever it is, I&#8217;d rather be drowning with you than being saved by somebody else.<\/p>\n<p>Join us on Sunday as we reflect on the seeds of faith and continue to receive the Holy Spirit into our lives and ministry. We begin worship at 10 am.\u00a0 All are welcome either in-person or on-line and the bulletin can be found on this website in the virtual bulletin tab. <strong>We look forward to seeing you!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3b0c8bc5965327fcdee24c9b2342fb90.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3691 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3b0c8bc5965327fcdee24c9b2342fb90-292x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"292\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3b0c8bc5965327fcdee24c9b2342fb90-292x300.jpg 292w, https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/3b0c8bc5965327fcdee24c9b2342fb90.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 292px) 100vw, 292px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having faith in Jesus is rooted in a willingness to follow Jesus &#8212; not because we believe that we&#8217;ve already got the story of life plotted but because we seriously believe that Jesus is Lord.\u00a0Faith isn&#8217;t an activity of the &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/?p=3690\">Continued<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3694,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3690","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-save-the-date"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3690","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3690"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3690\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3693,"href":"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3690\/revisions\/3693"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/3694"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3690"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3690"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stbartshhk.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3690"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
