Hello brothers and sisters.
I am happy to greet you on this special Sabbath when as a church we celebrate Creation Sabbath throughout the world.
On this day, we remember the work of our God, who, in six days, created the heavens and the earth, and as Genesis chapter 2 verse 3 says: “Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy.” (NIV)
This Sabbath we must remember that we are stewards of the earth that God has entrusted to us. We also take it as an opportunity to admire God’s work in creation and thank Him for His immense love and care.
And in that same framework let me share with you that as part of the Year-End Meetings of the Inter-American Division, we are launching today, the 2024 evangelism plan for our entire territory, entitled “All the Family in Mission.” This includes plans and initiatives for our members and families to get involved, and that we also participate as a family of faith.
But, above all, let us take advantage of this and every day to strengthen our relationship with God and to reflect on the mission He assigned us as individuals.
Maranatha!
