In August we are studying from the book of Acts about the mission God gave to the early believers, to tell everyone about Jesus. That mission belongs to us, today. The commission Jesus gave to His followers was to go into all the world and make disciples.
Last Sunday we learned about how the first Gentile (non-Jewish) people came to believe in Jesus, as Peter visited the Roman Centurion Cornelius and told him and his family and friends about the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. Although they were Gentiles, they believed Peter’s message, received the gift of the Holy Spirit, and were baptized as Chrisitans.
Next Sunday we will look at a part of the missionary journey of Paul, as he and Barnabas traveled through Asia Minor telling the Good News of Jesus. Even though some did not believe, and some were angry at Paul (to the point of stoning him), there were many who believed in Jesus. Paul and Barnabas left many believers in Iconium, Lystra, and Derbe who formed churches and followed Jesus together.
Please join us in Sunday School this Sunday as we learn about this important part of being a Christian! It would be a great day to bring a friend.
Tom and Sydney Cook
