Jesus9 love, sermon topic
Sylvia and Jack Nonkes greeted
worshippers at Blyth Christian
Reformed Church on Aug. 23. Rev.
Cliff Turkslra from Mt. Hope CRC
gave a warm welcome to fellow
guests, before he delivered the
message.
The Law was read, followed by
scripture passages chosen from I
Cor. 3: 10-15 and Heb. 6: 4-8;
which formed the basis of the
sermon.
The title for the morning sermon
was “The Love of Jesus.” Several
illustrations were implemented to
correlate with the scripture texts,
and to provide a parallel to
situations existing today. Rev.
Turkstra reflected on the marvel of
demonstrating Christ's love to
those around us.
The service ended with singing
hymn No. 445, “When Peace Like
a River”. Rev. Turkstra commented
on the fact that the writer of this
hymn had lost all his personal
belongings through fire as well as
his family on a boat at sea, after
which he still composed the lyrics.
The evening service began at
7:30 p.m. In charge of nursery was
Margaret Exel with Julie Verburg.
Several meetings for Vacation
Bible School will take place this
week. A bridal shower will be
hosted on Friday evening, Aug. 28,
at the church for Rebecca Vanden
Assem.
