Reflections from a Short-Term Mission Trip
We’re home! The Sarlos and Zappacostas have returned, and we are thankful for God’s blessing in travel, health, and safety. Thank you to all of you who prayed and supported us. You were there with us in the Spirit of God.
A Ministry of Suffering
I want to suggest that the Bible does not see suffering as something that interrupts our ministry as servants of Christ, but rather, suffering is itself a type of ministry; one that the Church and our world desperately need to witness. I want to call all of us to prepare and lean into a ministry of suffering.
Moses and All the Prophets
In last Sunday’s text, Jesus teaches two of his disciples on the road to Emmaus, “starting with Moses and all the prophets”, about how the Jewish scriptures, what we know as the Old Testament, testify to Him. Meaning, that Jesus told these disciples how the Bible points to his life.

Give your child the gift of faith-filled fun, friendship, and learning. Each week at a local school, kids in JK–Grade 8 enjoy: Engaging Bible stories - Fun games and activities - Memory work to help them grow in God’s Word - Healthy snacks - It’s a safe, encouraging place where children can grow in faith, discover hope in Jesus, and make lasting friendships.
