“O my people, hear my teaching; listen to the words of my mouth.
I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter hidden things, things from of old –what we have heard and know, what our fathers
have told us. We will not hide them from their children;
we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord,
His power, and the wonders he has done.”
Psalm 78:1-4
These words not only describe Jesus’ ministry –
they also tell us about the privilege that we have.
You and I are invited to tell the next generation
the praiseworthy deeds of our Lord.
We are privileged to share with others His power and His wonders.
As we worship today, let’s choose to do that very thing!
Welcome to Huron Shores Fellowship!
We are glad that you are here.
