Baptisms And Summer
'“I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me comes one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. '
Matthew 3:11
Dear Journey Family…
With hearts full of gratefulness, we closed another week, another year of Kids Summerama. This one was a special one. The main reason being that we saw the children growing in knowledge and desire of following the Lord in practical ways.
Also, this was the very first VBS that we’ve had baptisms. What more practical way to show your trust in the Lord and desire to follow him than with a public declaration of your commitment to Christ. Three young believers stepped up and chose to just do that and it created conversation among the other children and their family which turned into decisions for salvation! Praise the Lord!
Here is the little recap video for the whole week: LINK
Pastor Carlo on Sunday to close the Kids Summerama season, reminded us how this life is all about Jesus and challenged us to have a life that revolves not around ourselves but completely around Jesus. If you would like to watch his message, you can go here: LINK
And as always, we hope to see you on Sunday and if you can’t make it, you can still be with us in the distance and watch it online.

Back To School
This Sunday we will take some time to pray for our students and parents as they all get ready to go back to school. Please join us in prayer in this back to school season so that the kids can put their eyes on Jesus. Pray for teachers to have wisdom and the fear of the Lord as they teach the students and for our whole school system to be aware of the responsibility that is not just to teach the kids but to guide them to truth and not what this world deems as “good”.
Remember the words of our Lord:
' “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. ' Matthew 18:6
Missions Report
This Sunday will have an encouraging report by Sam and Gracie Corral sharing about their missions trip to Dominican Republic and the ministry that missionaries Richard and Nicole Soriano are carrying there in the Caribbean. Looking forward to it and hoping and praying that it is encouraging to everyone.
Labor Day Holiday Coming
We are half way through the summer so we have our eyes on what’s coming up on this second half. This Memorial Day plan to join us for our Communion Service, during our Sunday service and then enjoy lunch and fellowship afterwards. Sunday, September 3rd at 10am.
That’s all we have for now - it’s your turn to let us know what your thoughts are.
If you have anything that we can help with in prayer, please let us know.
We’d love to pray with you and for you.
