This Sunday at our Annual Meeting, we have the special joy of gathering together as a church family and reflecting on what God has done in our church and where he may be leading us in the coming days. This is the first in which I've been able to participate, and it reminds me that I'm nearing my first anniversary with the Springs. I'm incredibly grateful that God allowed me and my family to become a part of this church family, and we've been overwhelmed by the amount of love and encouragement we've been shown through this season of our lives.
A couple of weeks ago, we looked at a section of Romans 12 that spoke on the body of Christ as many members, each with different giftings but all necessary for the health of the Church. I am always encouraged when I see that at work in our congregation, and it brings to mind a sweet Psalm of David.
Psalm 133 (ESV):
Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity! It is like the precious oil on the head, running down on the beard, on the beard of Aaron, running down on the collar of his robes! It is like the dew of Hermon, which falls on the mountains of Zion! For there the Lord has commanded the blessing, life forevermore.
Pray First || 3/01 || The Springs Room 124
Come pray with us this Sunday, March 1st! “Pray First” is a once-a-month prayer rally for our entire church family. We’ll pray from 8:15 - 8:45 AM on the first Sunday morning of each month in Rm 124. Not only will this start our Sunday morning off right, but this will be a regular declaration to the Lord that The Springs Church is dependent on Him for all things! Adults, youth, kids…let’s all join together and Pray First.
