Postlude
At WECRC we believe Christians are called to be generous with the resources God has entrusted to us. We are inspired to give freely of ourselves, our time, our talents and our treasures as the visible expression of our love for God and each other.During this period of COVID-19 we encourage you to continue tithing and steady giving, recognizing that some of you will be hard hit financially in this difficult time. May God provide.
This Weeks offering cause:
Back to God Ministries International: Our offering today is for Back to God Ministries International: the multi-media ministry of the Christian Reformed Church. They proclaim the story of God’s unfailing love worldwide, by using media that effectively communicates Christ in the “heart language” of those in need of salvation and discipleship, in order that lives and communities might be transformed by God’s grace. ReFrame Media is the English language ministry of Back to God Ministries International. Their English ministry produces eight unique program streams which are designed to reach audiences of all ages in all stages of their faith journey. They use audio, video, print and internet programming to share the Gospel to people who speak English around the world. As we navigate this time of anxiousness and the unknown, it is their prayer that these resources will bring peace to our lives and to the lives of our loved ones. Know also that BTGMI’s international ministries are providing similar content in nine other languages for believers and seekers around the world who are also struggling.
