Every year the swallows return to Capistrano, the geese come back to Springfield, and just as regularly and importantly, though less known, the missionaries return to Second. We had 170 of us here for lunch today.
For many, it's old home week. Reunions are sweet. It's good to catch up on what's happening in each other's lives.
For others, it's get acquainted time. We have about 25 here from our church plant in Chicago to observe how we do GIC. Jesus bridges the gap between big cities and little cities. In fact, He breaks down all barriers.
For all, it's hallelujah weekend. The Lord always shows up at GIC. Miracles happen, lives are changed, Jesus is honored. This is what we are about at Second.
I'll see you in the morning for worship. Tomorrow night at 5 pm, and Wednesday night at 6 pm, we will feature missionary stories and testimonies. Pray for the Lord to protect our time together.
