The Naz - House of the Lord Fast day one

It’s a new year and we kicked it off yesterday by gathering for a wonderful meal prepared by Dave DelCorvo and his team after a day of fasting and prayer.

Then we joined together in the Sanctuary for a time of worship and reflection as we took communion and praised our Lord.  Pastor Ben walked us through Colossians 3:18-24.   He started the service out by asking us “What does SUBMIT mean?” and as we answered stuff like :      

Serve one another

Fellowship

Love

Respect

Carry each other’s burdens

Show up

Care

Be kind

Pastor Ben walked us through what it means to truly submit and love each other.  He challenged us that if we all would just do any of the these things on the list 20% more or better that our church and our homes would be MUCH different this year.  Looking inward to what WE can do, not what others should do.   Let’s live this year with a little less entitlement and a little more giving!  We ended the service with the song by Matt Maher called “Love will Hold us Together”.   Amen to that.
