AWC Updates

Amherst Wesleyan Church
AWC Updates 1 Dec 2023

Vision

This Sunday we will be handing out a short survey that will help us build a Small Group ministry that fits our church better. By the way, Small Groups are coming back in January! Please fill out that survey on Sunday and help us make the wisest decisions.

Also, we are getting very close to the Christmas Wrap-Up. This is one of the biggest opportunities we have during the year to show our community that we care about them. This care opens the door for the love of God and His Word to reach them. Quite often during Jesus' ministry He healed and fed people before getting into the teaching part of His work. His care and power opened the door. That's what we want to do here. 

The Wrap-Up isn't just for a few people. This is something we want everyone to be a part of. I hope you will be part of our Christmas Wrap-Up!

Wins

1. Brad and the Youth leaders attended a Youth Worker Conference in Moncton where they received valuable insights in how to make youth ministry stronger!

2. Five hundred invitations for Christmas Eve were handed out at the Christmas Parade.

3. Our Christmas is the Worst event went really well, seeing a number of people attend to get support and have some meaningful conversations.

4. We dedicated 4 kids on Sunday!

5. Many of you signed up for the grocery boxes and to purchase presents for families in need, which is was fantastic! Keep it up!!!

BETRAYED!

BETRAYED!

Deep Clean - Sunday, November 26, 2023

We have all felt, in varying degrees, the sting of betrayal. They are those wrongs that go beyond just an injustice or violation and bring with it the bitter bite of having trust and intimacy used against you. It makes the wrong personal. These aren't simply detached actions; they are personal rejections. That's how God see our sin.

Ezekiel 18-24

Sin is a violent betrayal of God's love for us.
