Mission Sing ‘n Celebrate, May 4th at 7 pm

In John 12:26, Jesus says that “the Father will honor anyone who serves me.”

Jesus’ message is for everyone – no matter what their social, cultural or racial differences.

Jenny Reyes will be our guest speaker. She and her husband, Ben, have been faithfully serving their Lord since 1989 in Brazil and Paraguay. Besides working with Ben in developing training that will equip Latin Americans for cross-cultural ministry, Jenny also works in her homeland, Brazil, in discipleship — leading Bible study seminars and teaching about church planting.

Please plan to join us, so that we can show our appreciation for her service.

Today’s Bible Verse

“[The Resurrection of Christ] Now, brothers and sisters, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,” –1 Corinthians 15:1, 3-4
