Gather25 (YESSS), New Courses (Yay!), Pretzel Sandwiches for EJAM (Yum)
Dear saints,
Yesterday we heard a couple Ebenezer stories in our worship times at the Stillmeadow Lane Campus. And at the York City Campus “third Sunday Praises” were shared. Check out the services (Stillmeadow Lane Campus and York City Campus ).
How have you experienced God’s faithfulness in your life this year? I encourage you to take a moment now and give thanks to him. And I’d encourage you to share that. Email me (pastorjosh@stillnaz.com) or send a text to a friend saying something like, “I just need to tell you about God’s faithfulness in my life.”
In our series, “GodStory OurStory” we want to not only look at how the Bible tells the story of salvation in Jesus Christ, but we want to develop our storytelling abilities. The world needs to know GodStory and OurStory. People need to hear about God’s work in our lives.
I’m excited about our Lenten Devotionals this year. They’re going with the reading plan and each one features an aspect of GodStory and OurStory. Some of the devotionals have a word of testimony that I am sure will bless and encourage you. You can sign up to receive them daily in your email (click here to sign up), or you can pick them up on March 2 at our welcome desks.
Grace and Peace,
Josh
PS It’s not too late to jump into the reading plan. We’re wrapping up Numbers and starting Deuteronomy this week. Check out our reading page here.
