Cell Group mini-retreat
In November our cell group hosted a mini-retreat. We invited the Hitachi cell group to come up and join us for weekend of prayer, praise and fellowship. It was such a blessed time. Thank you God!!
"Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." ~Psalm 46:10
Prayer through creative expression
What kind of impression does your faith leave on the people you meet?
"When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross. And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross." ~Colossians 2:13-14
Lunch together after worship on Sunday
A few friends stayed through Monday to hang out and do some sightseeing since it was a long weekend here.
