Welcome to Church!
We are glad to have you worship with us today. It's a true blessing to worship, pray, and serve with friends and neighbors.
Today, we continue a study of the book of Acts. We are beginning to see the work of missionaries reaching into the Gentile world. In the process there are some lessons for disciples of Jesus today to live as missionaries in our communities. It’s a message that reveals to us how we can share the message with an unbelieving world. We will leave with a question to answer… Do I know the story?
Gathering for worship services is an important part of our life as disciples of Jesus as well as a Global Methodist Church. We understand that God invites his people into three discipleship practices. First, to worship passionately, where worship is more than the songs we sing, it’s about the lives we live, for His glory. Second, God calls us to love extravagantly; to love like Jesus who modeled sacrificial love in his life and in his death. Third, God equips us to witness boldly; to tell others about what he has done and is doing in and through his people. We believe living out these three are essential for us as His church here in Rock Hall.
Thank you for being a part of our church family today. My prayer is that our time together in worship would be a source of inspiration, reflection, and connection in your relationship with Jesus. If you have any questions or want to discuss your faith journey, please don’t hesitate to contact me directly. My office telephone is 410-639-2144, or send me an email.
All for Him!

Benediction
Life is much more than an accident. Wherever I go, I believe God needs me there. Wherever I am, I trust God has put me there. He has a purpose for me being there -
Christ, alive in me, wants to do something through me, no matter where I am.
I believe this and go in His grace and His love and His power.
If you would like someone to pray with you, please come and meet one of our ministry leaders at the end of the service.

Faith determines how the story ends.
Take Home:
Read 1 Corinthians 9:19-23. How did Paul’s approach to different groups (Jews, Gentiles, etc.) help him in sharing the Gospel effectively?
Read Romans 10:14-15. Why is it important to clearly articulate the message of salvation? What are some key elements of the Gospel message that we should always include?
How does the Great Commission, Matthew 28:18-20, guide us in inviting others to respond to the Gospel?
