Worship: September 15th, 2019

On Sunday, September 15th, Pastor Tony continued his sermon series in Acts: Witnesses for Christ. He reminded us that as a shepherd cares for sheep, so also Elders are to care for the church with vigilance.

Preaching: Rev. Tony Felich (Sermon Audio Page| Other Sermons)

Acts 20:28-32
Acts 20:28 Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God, which he obtained with his own blood.  [29]  I know that after my departure fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock;  [30]  and from among your own selves will arise men speaking twisted things, to draw away the disciples after them.  [31]  Therefore be alert, remembering that for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish every one with tears.  [32]  And now I commend you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
