First Word for August 2023

I am excited and encouraged to see God’s hand on our church this summer. There is a strong sense of God’s presence helping us to move forward in His purposes to reach our city and the nations. We have witnessed salvations, baptisms, and youth being filled with the Spirit as well as tremendous giving for Mozambique. 

God is bringing many new people to our city and we have a great opportunity to partner with Him in seeing many lives transformed by the power of the gospel.  

As we serve God together, let us remember that: 
      Every person is a minister. 
      Every task is ministry. 
      Every encounter is a divine opportunity.

Philippians 3:14 encourages us:
      "I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."

Would you join me in increased focus on prayer and witnessing?
