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.
TODAY: Cadet Sunday. The Calvinist Cadet Corps is an independent youth ministry organization whose purpose is to provide churches with a ministry program that enables them to share Christ’s love with boys in their church and community. Funds are used to support this ministry with materials for education and program activities. This season’s theme is ‘Dive into the Word’, based on Psalm 119:162.
Next Week: Mission Support—Global. Next week’s offering goes to support West End’s sponsored Mission workers who use their gifts to spread the gospel to “to the ends of the earth”. Our gifts help them meet their daily needs so they can focus their efforts on reaching their communities with the good news about Jesus. West End CRC is currently supporting the Timmermans and the Strydhorsts.
