Announcements – June 21, 2024 – Christ Presbyterian Church (PCA)

Dear Brothers and Sisters in the Lord,

This coming Sunday, it will be our privilege to have Gannon Miles in our pulpit delivering God’s Word to us. Gannon will take his sermon text from the beloved Twenty-Third Psalm, and his message is entitled ‘The Shepherd Who Leads Us.’

No matter how many times we might read and meditate upon these inspired words of king David, we are always happily stunned by the discovery of even more of their profound depth and power. It is no stretch of the truth to say that one could well spend an entire lifetime prayerfully probing the six blessed verses of this little hymn to our Great Shepherd with no danger of exhausting their rich spiritual treasures!

Please lift up Gannon in your prayers as he preaches for us, and spend the weekend immersing your heart and mind in this amazing passage as you prepare for worship.

I also want to say another word of great appreciation for Dr. Matthew Elliott who preached so wonderfully for us the last two Sundays. What a blessing he is to our Church family, and we are so very thankful for the gifts the Lord has bestowed upon him!

I pray that you will have a most restful weekend, and that our Great King will pour out upon each of you the eternal riches of His grace!

All my love to all of you,

Mike
