Ministry Spotlight
Summer Mid Week All Family Gathering…What
Hey everyone! Our mid-week study on evangelism has been a total hit! On the first week, we had over 87 people show up! Can you believe that?
We kick things off with a delicious dinner from 6:00 PM to 6:30 PM. Then, we dive into a meaningful discussion about evangelism.
But what exactly is evangelism? Well, it’s all about sharing the incredible message of Jesus Christ with others. It’s about telling people about His life, death, and resurrection, and how they can find salvation through Him.
Now, I know what you might be thinking: “I’m not really into talking to strangers.” But hear me out. Just like marriage is tough but super rewarding, and couples thrive when they work together to build a strong foundation, no matter where they are in their journey.
The same goes for raising a family. It’s full of challenges, but if you’re intentional in your approach, those challenges become little bumps in an otherwise amazing and joyful adventure! And guess what? Even if you’re single, you can be a huge part of the church’s mission and outreach. Evangelism matters!
Evangelism is all about sharing the good news freely and trusting God to convert people. “Salvation comes from the Lord,” John 1:12–13, and that those who receive and believe in him are given the right to become children of God.
Last Wednesday, we were asked to wear something that represents something we’re passionate about that could spark a conversation. It was so much fun to see all the different ways we could connect and how easy it can be to connect with someone new.
There are many ways to share our faith, and none is more effective than sharing how the love, grace, and mercy of Christ have changed our lives. So, let’s keep spreading the love and making a difference in the world!
