I pray that this year has been good to you so far. I want to take the time to thank each of you for servitude in 2016. As each of you know, these are very important ages that we are blessed to serve. Our children deserve the best that we can give and provide. I do believe in my heart that the effort that you have put forth assist each child in maturing in the ways of the lord. Truth be told, the more I am serving the children the more evident my relationship between God and me becomes. It is my belief that not only are the children benefitting from our servitude but we are made better because of it. It helps us in our walk with the lord in so many ways. It allows us at least myself to pay more attention to God’s love (i.e. Mercy, …show more content…
You all have many gifts. God always prepares the body with the gifts that it needs to enhance itself in the ways of the lord. You all are very gifted and passionate. I pray that each of you will continue to allow God to use you and your gifts. You are all making a major difference in the lives of our children. They are face with bigger challenges than most of us were face with at their age. The world is wickeder, more dangerous and more conniving than it was when we were their age. Children have access to anything they want as fast as they want it. We live in a region where organize crime is always high. The organize crime leads to many violent acts and traps that are done on our children (i.e. Sex Trade, murder, drugs, and etc.). I have God news. We are the church!!! Jesus says in Mat. 16: 17 – 19, “And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. 18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” Demons do have their territories. However, they cannot do anything that God does not allow them to do to us. Although we are the church, the fact of the matter is that we are still …show more content…
Job 14:1 tells us that, “ Man who is born of a woman is few of days and full of trouble.” However, Jesus tell us that he came that we may have life and life more abundantly. Many things happen last year in the group to where my heart was heavy for those that went through the various storms. But as Jesus prayed for the disciples, I have prayed for each of you. I speak life in each of your situation. That is good news because to have life means to be in the presence of God. Where the spirit of the lord is there is liberty. Jesus promise that he will never leave you nor forsake you. Therefore, I am foolish enough to believe that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. You are Blessed. My sisters and Brothers, continue to serve the lord in season and out of season. For truly only what is done for Christ will last. You all are some Body. You are a child of the most high God.
I have attached the servant schedule to this email. Please advise Bridgette and/or myself if there are any conflicts. We will have our first meeting on 02/21/16. It is important for us to attend the meetings to assure that we are on the same page. This year’s calendar would be revealed then. We also, have more people to sign up for working in Kingdom Kids.
