Isaiah 43:1-3, 7, 10-13

But now, this is what the LORD says— he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior... Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth—everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.... “You are my witnesses,” declares the LORD, “and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he. Before me no god was formed, nor will there be one after me. I, even I, am the LORD, and apart from me there is no savior. I have revealed and saved and proclaimed—I, and not some foreign god among you. You are my witnesses,” declares the LORD, “that I am God. Yes, and from ancient days I am he. No one can deliver out of my hand. When I act, who can reverse it?”

Happenings

Here's some pictures of some of the latest ministry "happenings".
- Josh finished up his preaching seminar this last weekend. He shared with me that it's been one of the most rewarding classes he's ever given. He broke up the class in three weekend sessions: one in March, one in April and one in May. He had about 15 students: half were leaders from our congregation, and the other half came from churches around the country. It was a great oppourtunity for these Christian brothers to rub shoulders and also recieve some specific training on how to preach and study the Bible.




- The men took advantage of the end of the rainy season to have their annual men's campout. Lots of male bonding time!


-The youth had a movie night where they watched "Guardians of the Sea" - a very good movie by the way - and afterward had a corresponding devotional. The youth group is really blossoming, and the great news is that another one, Bruno, is planning to be baptized on Sunday!
