¿No Te
Pierdas Las Bendiciones De Servir
A veces, en nuestro
fervor bíblico para enfatizar que la salvación no es por obras, no
somos capaces de apreciar plenamente que hemos sido salvados para hacer
buenas obras (Efesios 2:10). De hecho, Dios te ha colocado en tu
iglesia con el fin de que tú puedas ser edificado, de modo que puedas trabajar
y servirle. Si nos permitimos seguir siendo sedentarios esto significa que
estamos descuidando el mismo propósito de Dios para nuestra salvación y de
otros. Al servir, sigues y te comportas como Jesús y con eso también
lo glorificamos. Si usted está interesado en servir como líder
de una célula, coordinador de voluntarios, equipo de bienvenido o en
cualquier capacidad, por favor, marque el lado reverso de la tarjeta de
asistencia y díganos en que área de servicio le gustaría participar o
contáctese con Pastor Tom Martínez al 407.556.5016 o Tom.Martinez@kissimmeechristianchurch.org.
