SERMON SERIES:
JOINING GOD ON GODS MISSION

Dear Church,

This Sunday, we join with all the people of God to worship our Awesome Creator! We join with people of every tribe, tongue, nation, and language as we gather together and participate in a foretaste of that great day when we will gather before the throne of God above. As we continue our series on joining God in God’s mission in the world, we will be looking at Revelation 7 and reflecting on the scope of God’s mission: A mosaic of people, washed in the blood of the lamb, worshiping the lamb. I cannot wait to worship with you this Sunday!

Peace,
Pastor Jeff
