PASTOR’S
PROLOGUE
T
his week is Engage Week
throughout our church.
This is where we are
encouraging as many people
as possible to engage others
with the Gospel of Christ. Last
Tuesday our College/Priority
Young Adults had an Engage
Day. I am told that over 100
gospel conversations took place.
The gospel was shared at many
times in many places.
Remember that evangelism has
been described as simply “one
beggar telling another beggar
where to find bread.” Someone
loved you enough to share the
Gospel with you. Now let’s pass
it on.
I look forward to seeing you
this Sunday in Bible study and
worship. Please invite a friend to
come with you.
