PASTOR KEVIN & BETTY LEWIS - Guest Speaker - Sunday, March 3rd, 10:00 a.m.
Kevin joined the pastoral team at Glencairn Church (Kitchener, ON) in February of 2010. He has used his 30 years of ministry experience to enable servants of the Kingdom to know their Saviour better and to experience the power of God in their lives through deep relationships with other servants in the Kingdom. As the Equipping Pastor of Youth and Adult Ministries, he thrives on encouraging people toward a greater potential in God. His passions are his wife of 28 years, Betty, who was born in Peru, his four kids, and two grandkids. He likes NASCAR Racing, NFL football, hiking, photography, and slot car racing. Being from Minnesota, Kevin loves the cold, ice, and snow...some would say, “to a fault.”
Betty is Karen Verdoold's sister. We're looking forward to hearing from the two sisters this weekend as they will bring "special music" to our worship service. |
This week's sermon topic and text are: "Life in a Nutshell"
Ephesians 3:14-21 - New International Version (NIV)
A Prayer for the Ephesians
14 For this reason I kneel before the Father, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. 16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
