Jo Ellen from the Seward United Methodist Church led the worship service at Brookdale this afternoon. She is shown holding a coin and
spoke on the Parable of the Lost Coin; one of the parables of Jesus. It appears in Luke 15:8–10. In it, a woman searches for a lost coin,
finds it, and rejoices. It is a member of a trilogy on redemption that
Jesus tells after the Pharisees and religious leaders accuse him of
welcoming and eating with "sinners." The other two are "The Lost Sheep" and the "Prodigal Son". She related the woman searching for the lost coin to Jesus "looking for us". She went on to tell of having scattered many pennies throughout the sanctuary ahead of each of the services. It was a way of demonstrating the glee of finding a coin and it showed up especially with the Children. The service also included Mr. Richard Piontek, who played guitar and led singing of gospel hymns. He is an employee of the Brookdale Corporation and was in the state to review the installation of the fire sprinkler systems here at the Seward facility as well as visiting facilities in other locations.
