Remember

“Remember those in prison as if you were their fellow prisoners, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.” (Hebrews 13:3)

Last night in our Student Ministry we wrapped up the month of November with a message entitled, "Remember." It was a informational and educational teaching on what the Bible says about the poor and the persecuted. An estimated 200 million Christians worldwide suffer interrogation, arrest and even death for their faith in Christ, with another 200 to 400 million facing discrimination and alienation. Now I'm not talking about 2,000 years ago, I'm talking about in todays time! Can you say, "wow"! What will we do about this information? Ignore it? Act like it doesn't exist? Act like it's not happening? Or pray! Or get involved! We choose to educate our teenagers about other teenagers worldwide who are suffering. Several of our teens did a illustrative skit of what it would be like to have radical muslims storm in a service and oppose the gospel! (Great job guys!)

For the month of December, we will have the opportunity to remember the poor through the Networkers ministry of Life Church. Join us as we go to the poorest of the poor in our area and hand out free groceries. We will also have the opportunity to visit local nursing homes and love on the elderly.
