This is our week… our Missions Focus week… that we call GIC (Global Impact Celebration). As a Pastor of LifeWay it is my privilege to help guide this congregation in the many aspects of our ministry and endeavors. I love the Christmas season and its services. I love summer camps and the connections. I love Easter and its glorious celebration. But I love this GIC week the most. Why? Because I believe it hits at the heart of why God put us here on this earth. Missions is all about proclaiming the truth of the Gospel to our neighbors and our world. GIC week is designed to help clarify our focus, open our hearts, deepen our passion and let God give guidance to what He has called us to in this Gospel work.
I cannot stress to you enough how important it is to be part of as many of the GIC week events, small groups, Saturday morning’s workshops; Saturday evenings International Dinner; and of course our Sunday October 20 Commitment service. You will meet some incredible Global workers. My prayer is that you most of all come face to face with the calling of God into a world that needs to hear about Him.
This is it. See you this week. Pray for what God may be leading us to as a Church family, but also for what God is leading you to do as well.
