Vancouver Today - e.Update, April 12, 2011

  
Continues through April 23. 

God is moving in mighty ways!

Night by night, it's amazing to see how people's lives are being changed as they are introduced to Jesus Christ and truths of the Bible. One lady told me that she was told by a friend (who used to be an Adventist) that when she studied the Bible she found the Adventists were the ONLY ones who could back up everything they say with scripture. So, this lady decided to come and see what we were about. My question is, why is her friend no longer an Adventist? Ah! but her friend came for the first time last night.

Also last night, when Richard Halversen preached on the Mark of the Beast, there were 19 people who said they wanted to keep the Sabbath and be baptized! There were an additional 23 people who said they wanted to keep the Sabbath!

God is good! All the time!

Please keep praying for these people. We are inviting them back to church and the potluck this Sabbath again. Plan to stay and meet a new friend. Plan to bring some extra food. Last week was awesome as many of the new people stayed and ate and joined us in making friendships stick - food helps people stick!

If you would like to help these people STICK in the church afterwards, we'd like to get you involved with them in a Community Group. Please let Pastor Roger or Pastor Jeff know if you are interested in helping this happen.
