Welcome to the website of the Church of the Holy Spirit, an international group of believers and seekers from many different backgrounds, sharing together the Good News of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Lord, you have been our dwelling place
throughout
all generations.
Before the mountains were born
or you brought forth the whole world,
from
everlasting to everlasting you are God.
You turn people back to
dust,
saying,
“Return to dust, you mortals.”
A thousand years in your sight
are
like a day that has just gone by,
or
like a watch in the night.
Yet you sweep people away in the sleep
of death—
they
are like the new grass of the morning:
In the morning it springs up
new,
but
by evening it is dry and withered.
We are consumed by your
anger
and
terrified by your indignation.
You have set our iniquities before you,
our
secret sins in the light of your presence.
Teach us to number our days,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:1-8,12
