Scripture                 Matthew 5:13-20                        Mary Meckenstock

“You are the salt of the earth.  But if the salt loses its saltiness, how

 can it be made salty again?  It is no longer good for anything, except

 to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.  You are the light of the

 world.  A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.  Neither do people 

light a lamp and put it under a bowl.  Instead they put it on its stand, 

and it gives light to everyone in the house.  In the same way, let your 

light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and 

glorify your Father in heaven.

Sermon    The Bold Tribe That Shines      Susan Murithi, Senior Pastor

Faithful Stewardship            2 Corinthians 8:7         Mary Meckenstock

Since you excel in everything—in faith, speech, knowledge, and love—see 

that you also excel in the grace of giving.

Congregational Prayer:  “Gracious Lord, You’ve called us to excel in faith, 

In speech, in knowledge, and in love.  Help us to excel in the grace of

giving.  Let generosity flow from hearts full of Your love, and may we give

not out of obligation, but as an overflow of all You’ve given us.  Amen.”
