We welcomed Ron Gilreath back today. Ron has been and is a blessing to have amongst us. Thank you Ron. We are truly grateful for you! Today's entire service including Ron's " The Ministry of Reconciliation " message from today is on our youtube channel if you missed it.
Women of the Church: Women of the church are meeting at The Carriage House at noon(12:00) on July 15th for a time together.(Thank you Margaret)
Please continue keeping the Session and the church in your prayers. Specifically for wisdom, patience, and guidance in following the Lord's will for our congregation. Session meets this week for normal business and in addition will have Rev. Steven Barnes(chair of North Georgia Presbytery Committee on Ministry) to continue the guidance on what is next for our church. As mentioned previously, there will be opportunities for each of us to share our thoughts, hopes, and prayers for the future during this time of transition. Lifelines plans are still being formulated and will be shared as soon as new information is available.
Take this Sunday's theme and apply it where you can. 2 Corinthians 5:16-21(NIV) - "16 So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone, the new is here! 18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20 We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God. 21 God made him who had no sin to be sin(a sin offering) for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God." As Christians we are called to be reconcilers. All of us at JPC wish you the best this week.
