Quest takes off for Belize, Central America, in just 3 days! We'll arrive there Saturday afternoon in Belize City. From there we'll travel to the capital city of Belmopan - just over an hour inland. We'll settle in, then gather for a meal with the church community we are helping to plant/grow there. After dinner, we'll all gather - Americans and Belizeans - to worship together. I (John Kenney) will be preaching that night - along with the pastor of the Belizean church (German Gallardo). Our theme that night is "ONE." We're preaching from Ephesians 4:4-6 where Paul calls the fracturing church (cultural issues in the first century) to UNIFY and focus on what they hold in common - JESUS - instead of what could tear them apart (differences that just don't matter, really).
Pray for German Gallardo and I as we prepare to preach this message of UNITY the first night. We need God's Spirit to guide us and to overtake that worship space as we gather. Pray that we would truly UNITE AS ONE CHURCH in Belize.
Belize bound,
John Kenney

Psalm 100
ReplyDeleteA psalm. For giving grateful praise.
1 Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth.
2 Worship the LORD with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.
3 Know that the LORD is God.
It is he who made us, and we are his[a];
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
5 For the LORD is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.
Praying each day and giving thanks for the team doing the Lord's Work. I love you all.
