God is at Work

 

My resurrection Sunday this past weekend included Preaching on Matthew 28, to conclude our several years long series on the gospel of Matthew. I actually preached through the entirety of chapters 26 and 27 on Good Friday, then the Great Commission on Sunday. I started this series in May or June in 2023, and did not plan to be at these chapters at this time of the year, but it lined up that way. That is just something that is cool.

Then after church I went to our church’s local homeless outreach, to spend time talking with various poor people about Jesus. A couple of ladies at the group committed to coming to church. Please pray that they do. People in their situation often have grand ideas about how they will improve their lives and situation, but the pressures of their situation can get on top of them, and so can their patterns of behaviour, so please pray that they stay the good course. We have already had people come from that outreach to church, and we know other churches are reaching out to the same people, as well, which is awesome.

After that I then I got to do some baptisms.

It was a massive day and I was very tired after that. But it was a good day.

I also saw that a church in western Australia did around 1000 baptisms at the beach on Easter Sunday. So cool.

God is at work people. In so many ways he is at work.
