April 22nd is commitment Sunday at Springs of Grace. You will have the opportunity to join in a commitment to pray for laborers – that simply means that you will pray and ask God to use you to bring others to Springs of Grace over the coming 8 months. “Laborers” is a term we get from Matthew 9:38 and just refers to those who would come and worship with us or do the “one anothers” of Scripture together with us – or help us love the people of our city better. Many of you are here as a result of others’ prayers – so join me in this commitment.
We will also take a summer ministry offering – we are praying God allows people to give $40,000 to help us bring in 15-20 or so summer interns that we might teach about urban ministry and that might help us love our church and city better. This is one of the most important ministries of our church. Please pray and ask the Lord whether you should give or not – (He may not have you to) and ask Him how generous you can be.
