Reading Plan: Matthew 28:16-20
Wow! What a glorious celebration of the resurrection of King Jesus we had this past Sunday at Austin Global Methodist Church. Because he lives, we can face tomorrow. The same mission that was given to the women at the tomb has been given to us: do not be afraid and go and tell! The tomb is empty and the King is alive!
This next Sunday will conclude our sermon series, “Thy Kingdom Come”, with the final words of Jesus before his ascension. Before he left, he gave his disciples the mission to go into the world, make disciples, baptize, teach, and remember he is always with them. In preparation for next week’s sermon, let’s read Matthew 28:16-20.
Next week will also be Austin Global Methodist Church’s one year anniversary celebration! Fifteen minutes prior to service, there will be a special slideshow presentation of the past Sundays and special events hosted by AGMC over the past year. In between Sunday School (9am) and Worship (11am), will be a time of food and fellowship at 10am. Invite your friends and family. You will not want to miss this Sunday!
Don’t forgot that our Christmas Choir practices at 10:30am for the upcoming Christmas performance on December 22nd. If you would like to join the Christmas Choir, please email me so I can print out your copy of “Come Thou Long Expected Jesus” by Charles Wesley. We are one practice in and I can tell it is going to be a beautiful music special!
As the year anniversary approaches and I reflect on the four wonderful months I have spent here as your pastor, I am filled with gratitude. I am thankful for those who started the church at a Mexican food restaurant on a hope and a prayer. I am thankful for the preachers who faithfully led the congregation through holidays seasons and ordinary times. I am thankful for this welcoming, enthusiastic congregation full of life, love, and purpose. But most of all I am thankful that the Lord counted me faithful, putting me in the ministry at Austin Global Methodist Church.
Blessings,
Rev. Lauren Green Yates, MDiv.
Pastor of Austin Global Methodist Church
