Nelson Newsletter–December 2014

“Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or remain absent, I will hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel.” Philippians 1:27

Our House Church Conference 11 2014

House Church Conference On Nov 21-23rd our house church met with a house church from Gainesville, Florida to “strive together for the sake of the gospel.” God united our hearts as we sang praises to Him, heard challenging messages, such as Timmy Power’s, “Making Christ Supreme.” We were refreshed in our relationship with God as we studied Colossians privately and together. We were reminded that we are all full time ambassadors for Christ on mission for Him daily. We broke down into small groups to discuss how these truths give eternal significance to our employment, families, and daily tasks. We enjoyed getting to know others who are seeking to do God’s will in a similar context of a simple/house church. Thanks for praying! (Andrew spending some quiet time with God)

Thanksgiving in NYC Danelle, Merry, and I spent a delightful Thanksgiving in NYC with our daughter, Julie and her family. We went to the Macy’s Day parade in the snow, enjoyed delicious meals together, gave God thanks, & had fun sightseeing and shopping together.
