This morning we will be finishing off the third chapter in the Book of 2nd Timothy.

We are going to see Paul encouraging Timothy that he has all the tools he needs to be an honorable and usable vessel for the Lord. Paul knew his time was short so he needed Timothy to embrace who he was in Christ, and to never forget that he was called to serve the Lord.

Paul will reinforce that Timothy was ready and prepared for the challenges ahead by reminding him of how his life has prepared him for such a time as this. Paul will remind him of the training he received from Paul, the training he received from his mother and grandmother, and how he had the Word; which was the very God-breathed tool that Timothy could always be assured of throughout his life.

Similarly, we too need to be reminded that if we are willing, we can also be an honorable and usable vessel of the Lord. We also have amazing tools and experiences that will help reinforce our faith and allow us to be immovable in the face of adversity and persecution.

*******************Fellowship Meal*********************

It looks like the weather is not going to cooperate with us for our outdoor service. Right now they are calling for a 64 percent chance of rain at 10AM. However, a little rain is not going to stop us-we will just move the service inside the church. 

We are still having our fellowship meal following the service. So please remember to bring your sides and desserts and we will still enjoy a time of great fellowship following the service.

Special thanks to Doris Hughes and the hospitality team for pivoting so quickly.
