The Hopeful Work of Gospel Ministry
Dear friends,
In our Sunday Morning worship, our plan is to especially consider the hope of gospel ministry in our looking at the faith of Joseph. This hope is one of glory — the glory of God in the lives of his people.
This is an important passage for the people of God. I can't wait to study it with you.
And then in the evening, our plan is to begin a new short series on "The Prayers of Paul."
I love reading and meditating upon Paul's prayers in his letters. I'm sure these passages will soon be some of your favorites as well, if they're not already.
Important reminders!
This Sunday, please be sure to bring your food drive items including: hearty soups, canned tuna, and peanut butter.
And
Holiday in the Park is this Friday!
