Early Edition for 5-3-2015
Missionary Highlight: Argentina: Jay Cook Most of us probably think everyone in South America speaks Spanish, except for Brazil, where Portuguese is spoken. The Early Edition May 3, 2015 But several million people, known as the Quichua, have their own language. They live in Argentina, Peru and several other countries. One of our missionaries, Jay Cook, is ministering to the Quichua people in northern Argentina, a vast rural area far from big cities. Jay drills water wells and provides water filters so the people can have clean water. Most of the Quichua people believe in spirits; few have heard the gospel of Jesus Christ. But because Jay helps the people have clean water, they listen to what he says. Today let’s pray for Jay, his wife and children as they live in that isolated part of South America. And let us pray that many people there will turn from believing in spirits and find the Living Water of Jesus Christ for their lives. Imagine: Even this morning, our Cooperative Program dollars are helping the gospel be shared in northern Argentina! What does it mean to be a Christian? A Christian is someone who is becoming like Christ. It sounds simple, but it’s only possible through a relationship with Jesus Christ. Fully God and fully man, Jesus came to this earth, lived a perfect life, died to pay for everything we did wrong, and rose from the dead so that we could enjoy life with Him. He’s already done everything for our salvation. Our role is to repent (turn away from our sin), surrender our life to Him, and follow Him. Still have questions? Contact our Pastor, visit our JBC website, or visit www.billygraham.org. Sharon is in the church office Monday-Thursday from 9-5. Please submit all bulletin/calendar information by noon on Monday. 3203 US Hwy. 601 South Mocksville, NC 27028 336-284-2328 To EMAIL a prayer request: prayerrequests@jbcmocksville.org Our website: www.jbcmocksville.org Welcome to The Church Ministry Budget Jerusalem Baptist Church Seeking to Win, Disciple, and Serve May 3, 2015 Special Music Pastor Donnie “The Potter’s Hand” Last Week’s Building Fund Offering: $1,300.00 Offertory Prayer Deacon of the Month Michael Crowe Choir Carolyn & Nevida Pastor Donnie Congregation Benediction Evening Worship Pastor Donnie Building Fund for 4-12-15: Balance on Loan: $830.00 $62,938.73 NURSERY WORKERS May 3rd: Sunday School: Jordain Taylor & Jennifer West Nursery AM Worship: Vivian Settle & Sheila Taylor PM Worship: Jordain Taylor Wed.
