Worship Message: "In the Fellowship"
|
Message Provided by:
Pastor Bill Bossert
Text: Acts 2:42
Theme: The early believers had a unique sense of their fellowship that included many elements of relationships and actions because of their relationship to Jesus. Their fellowship stood in stark contrast to the other religious communities around them. That fellowship was attractive to people. And it became a powerful magnet to draw others to know Jesus as their Savior and Lord.

STEWARDSHIP THOUGHTS:
LOCAL CONFERENCE ADVANCE
God's love for the world is clearly delineated throughout the scriptures. John 3:16 says that God so loved the world that He sent his son, Jesus Christ. John 3:1 says that God poured down His love on the world to the point of calling the believers His children. Furthermore, Paul describes a God who loves a cheerful giver. Years ago a viral video showed a worshiper in a church during the offering time doing back flips and dancing to the beat of the music. Spectators watched in anticipation of what he would do next. As the believer made his way to the platform, in a gracious way, he brought his offering to the altar and then danced back to his seat. The title of the video was: "A Cheerful Giver." Paul appeals to the church in Corinth by reminding them of Jesus's sacrifice for humanity though which believers are considered rich. Paul also gave clear advice on how to give: "Give according to what one has, not according to what he does not have" (2 Cor. 8:9, 12). Ellen White affirms, "Unselfish liberality threw the early church into a transport of joy; for the believers knew that their efforts were helping to send the gospel message to those in darkness" (Stewardship, 172). As you consider what Jesus did for you, may the thoughts fill you with a cheerful heart. Your liberal offerings will be a blessing in your conference as plans are made to further His contact.

BUDDY BREAK
We have over 25 families signed up for Buddy Break which is a huge blessing. However we are in need of adult volunteers. We would love someone to lead out in the opening arrival with maybe a couple of group songs. We could use someone to oversee games to connect the various levels of special needs and typical group. If you are creative, we have crafts or special projects. And lastly, if you like to work behind the scenes, we need help with set up/clean up of the facility or just the kitchen when we offer the volunteers a small meal as many come from work. There is something for everyone, even things you can do from home.
This community outreach project has been absolutely amazing and we've formed some beautiful relationships with families and their children with special needs. Please email
BuddyBreakNaples@gmail.com for more info and check us out on Facebook at Buddy Break Naples.
