“My Jesus I Love Thee” was the hymn we opened our worship with on Sunday morning. How good it was to be in the house of the LORD. Pastor Mark Abney brought a sermon titled Paul’s First Missionary Journey from Acts 13:1 – 14:7. When we become a Christian God gives us the Holy Spirit who guides us. Being led by the Holy Spirit, Paul and Barnabus set out on the first missionary journey. They preached the good news of the gospel message to the jews and gentiles. There were signs and wonders and many people were being saved.
Our prayer requests this week include Joan Rasmussen, Vickie Kreisel, Ken Willings, Tom Graham, Dan Henry and Rena Galloway. God is faithful and answers our prayers. Please lift these up to Him.
