A popular author says these are the six marks of a disciple of Jesus:
· Prayer
· Weekly worship
· Regular reading of the Bible
· Service to others
· Spiritual friendships
· Generous giving
So how are we doing?
Sure, church is about worship, thanking Jesus for our blessings. But it's also about following Him, discipleship. It's about growing more in to His image and doing His work.
And St. David's exists to help us do this.
This Sunday we kick off the program year, welcoming back the choir and introducing (or re-introducing) important ministries.
We're doing something new and imaginative called 'Godspeed.' After the 10am worship service you're invited to stay for breakfast (child care available) and a festive learning blitz - a fun and speedy introduction to our amazing ministries.
When Jesus said Follow Me! you and I said 'yes!' Then God gave us this fabulous community in which to do it. Come, join us, and make this the year you get involved more deeply in following Jesus.
