What a great time I had with the folks in Vale, North Carolina this past week. I was there as a part of the World Methodist Council on Evangelism as I shared with the folks as it related to the Cornerstone Celebration, a local church ministry that lifts up Jesus Christ as the cornerstone of our faith as Christians. (I'll share more about this on Sunday). The picture above is the Bed and Breakfast where I stayed called De Starte'. Glenda Miller was a most gracious hostess.
Sunday afternoon I led a Faith-Sharing Workshop at the Hebron UMC. It was a great afternoon with about 30 in attendence for the workshop. We talked about the importance of sharing our faith with others and the fact that we are not in full compliance with Jesus' teachings if we choose to remain silent about what he has done and is doing in our lives.
The above is a cake with the Cornerstone logo imprinted on it. You might also notice that the them of the World Methodist Council on Evangelism is "That the world may know Jesus".
For you folks in North Carolina, thank you from the bottom of my heart. What a blessed time and what a joy to see God work the way he did. God truly was present in our time together. Please be intentional about your growth in Christ now that the "event" is over.
Also, thanks to all of you for the good food - wow!! It's some serious diet time now. (I mentioned livermush to the folks back here but they weren't overly interested).
For you here in Leoti, I'll fill you in on Sunday as I mix the pictures and experiences with the sermon. Hey, why not bring a friend? So here we go, back in the saddle again!
