“Light from on high”
– Luk 1:78 (AMP)
Doing everything as to the Lord
How quickly this year has gone by! Our outreach team had been involved in a lot a preparation for the Ethiopian Outreach, and now that is also in the past. Nevertheless, our lives have eternal meaning and the things we do, all work together towards the final establishment of God’s great Kingdom!
The Bible reminds us so aptly:
- Col 3:17 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
- Col 3:23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men
As 2017 is drawing to a close, here are a few rather important announcements to take note of:
- The Men’s fellowship will conclude with a social get-together on Sat 25 Nov at 15h00. All men, please make sure that you add your name to the list at the Info Desk at church, so we can provide the necessary catering. For directions to the venue, please contact Terrence (084 500 1223);
- On Sun 3 Dec we will have a very special service. We call it a “Gifting service”, because on that morning all the church members will have an opportunity to use their special gifts and skills to minister to the congregation. If you desire to share your gifting with us, you are encouraged to add your name to the list at Church. Let’s make this an amazing time of sharing! Please note the following important aspects concerning this event:
- only Church MEMBERS may participate
- once your name appears on the list, your item will be confirmed by ps George
- every item may only be 3 minutes long
- strife to show us the spiritual application of your gifting
- pray about it, and determine to be led by the Holy Spirit
- this is NOT a talent competition!
- We will have a normal Sunday service on 24 Dec, but also a very special service & presentation on Christmas day (25 Dec). This special service will start an hour earlier than normal, being 08h00;
- There will be NO SUNDAY MORNING SERVICE on 31 Dec, but we have moved that service closer to midnight. So, we will have a service that EVENING at 22h00. Don’t miss this!
May our good Lord bless you all during this upcoming holiday season. Be reminded that “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever”! (Heb 13:8)
