Worship Service on 8/20/2023

The Lord’s words through the prophet Isaiah remind us of the purpose of the sacred space into which we have entered: “My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples” (Isaiah 56:7). Even from ancient times, the Lord God has invited all peoples—no matter who they are or where they have come from—to enter His presence and receive deliverance from their sin. In Christ Jesus, crucified and raised to life again for our salvation, we trust that the promises of God, offered to all, are also promises He makes personally to us. Jesus died for all, and Jesus died for you! Standing together as one, we, though many, form one family and belong to one everlasting kingdom. Together, we receive God’s gifts. Together, we raise our united voice in prayers and praises. Together, we gather to experience the life God offers “for all peoples.”
