RECAP:

Yesterday was a blessed family time together at Mt. Carmel! Our newest members, Brandon and Tessy Marston—along with their children, Isaac and Hannah—greeted the church and opened us in prayer. The worship set was powerful as our hearts reflected on the compassionate and loving character of King Jesus.

Pastor Mike shared prayer requests for two of our missionaries. 1) Jack and Sharon Tucker, our own Mt. Carmel members serving in Manila, are raising funds for a vehicle that would increase their ministry outreach and opportunities. (You can help the Tuckers here.) 2) Areobaldo DeCarvalho, our missionary to Cape Verde, Africa, has been placed on a ventilator as he battles COVID pneumonia. Please continue to pray for his healing.

Sunday’s message was the second in our series “Highlighting the Home.” We saw how Jesus seeks to restore the broken intimacy and fellowship once enjoyed at Eden by transforming our hearts to freely offer the same covenant love to others that we have received from God. The message can be found on the website, YouTube channel, Spotify podcast, or iTunes podcast.
