Mission Statement

2/18/2021

0 Comments

 
76 “And you, my little son, will be called the prophet of the Most High, because you will prepare the way for the Lord. 77 You will tell his people how to find salvation     through forgiveness of their sins. (Luke 1:76-77 NLT)

The Transition Task Force at St. Michael has been working on a new, unified mission statement for the Church, School, and Early Childcare Center. Their recommendation will be coming out soon.

Zechariah talked about the mission of his son, John.
  • John would be the first real Prophet of God in over 400 years. A Prophet speaks for God, brings God's Word to His people. 
  • John would prepare people to meet Jesus, the Promised Savior. John would be the advance man for Jesus, the Son of God.
  • John would connect people with Jesus by calling them to repent, to turn back to God and ask Him to forgive them.

The same things need to happen today.
  • We need to prepare people to meet Jesus by speaking God's Word to them in a way that they can understand. 
  • We start by asking God to forgive us and turn our lives around so that we walk with Him in faith.
  • Then we can work together to try to connect people with Jesus.

    My name is Larry. Right now I am serving as the Intentional Interim or Transitional Pastor at St. Michael's Lutheran Church, Richville, MI. This blog is part of my daily personal time reading the Bible and talking with God. It is more of my personal thoughts than a deep theological discussion. Thanks for taking the time to join me in reading and thinking about what God has to say to us today.
