“I was glad when they said to me, ‘Let us go to the house of the Lord’!” (Psalm 122:1). David reminds us that there is joy in the house of the Lord. Going to church isn’t something we just have to do; it is something we get to do! Going to church doesn’t make you a Christian, but being a Christian should make you want to go to church. This is because there is joy in worshipping Jesus Christ together, there is joy in hearing God’s Word, and there is joy in building community with others. I truly love gathering with our church, and I hope you do too.
“I Love My Church Sunday” is all about celebrating what God is doing here at ABC. It is a special day to come together as one church family, and it will be the opportunity to invite others to come and see. This Sunday, we will offer a unique schedule for this special day: 9am BFGs, 10:30am worship, and 11:45am church-wide lunch. Immediately following worship, we will have free hamburgers for all, a BFG dessert competition, and fun games for all the kids.
As a part of our celebration, our children’s choir will sing a special song in worship, and we currently have eight individuals scheduled to be baptized! I am praying that even more will make that decision to be baptized in the coming days. I encourage you to follow up with the folks from your “go card” and invite them to join you this Sunday. Get here early to save your seat, and I look forward to worshipping with you at 10:30am.
Onward and upward,
Jonathan Spencer
