Looking Back…Looking Forward…
Monday, May 22nd, 2006THANK YOU, St. Luke, for all of the great feedback about our last sermon series: Grabbing God’s Vision: The Sequel. In this sermon series, we took four weeks together to embrace our God-given vision for St. Luke. Each week, we talked about our mission statement, our vision statement, and then worked through one of our four core values. I thank you for the positive feedback, and I pray you can now all say that our mission statement at St. Luke is: “TO FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST AND SHARE HIS LOVE WITH THE WORLD.”
You might find it interesting that during “Work Day,” May 20th, as many of us gathered to spruce up the grounds and garage of St. Luke, we discovered a flip chart in the garage from 1979–just a year after the birth of St. Luke as a congregation! Would you believe that the four “Core Values” we just walked through were all in place in 1979? It’s a witness to the work God began as St. Luke began, and the work God continues to do in and through this great congregation.
I am very blessed to be your Senior Pastor, and I thank God for each of you! Keep God’s Vision for St. Luke alive!
