Faith in Action Sunday, pt. 2




This past Sunday our church had a great time getting out into the community and serving those in need. We collected 2,840 food items and canned goods for the Wheeling Township Food Pantry, and all came back at 5:00 pm for a powerful service of worship and celebration in our church gym. Here's what the service looked like:

Instrumental Prelude: Blessed Be Your Name (A)
Welcome - Dave
-Happy Day (B)
-How Great Thou Art (B) - Baloche version
[Prayer] - Scott
-Jesus Messiah (A)
Reading: Ephesians 2:4-9
-Amazing Grace / My Chains Are Gone (F)
Testimonies / Stories from the day
Kentucky Mission Team Dedication
Highlight Slideshow
-Stronger (C)

Faith in Action Sunday


This weekend is our church's 2nd annual Faith in Action Sunday - where we cancel our morning services and instead go out into the community and do service projects - and then return at 5:00 pm for a church service and dinner in the gym. I am so excited about this weekend, because of the potential it holds for our church to love and serve our surrounding community, and to be the hands and feet of Jesus to those who need help and who often cannot help themselves.

I'll try to post some highlights, along with an outline of our Sunday evening service, sometime next week.
