Pastor Josh here.
Pastor Josh
I would like to give you a preview of our Sunday morning service on January 19th here at Middletown Baptist Church.
Pastor Josh
This Sunday is our Vision Sunday.
Pastor Josh
What that means is, as a church, we're looking at what our goals are for 2025.
Pastor Josh
The theme for this year and the goal for this year is just one simple word.
Pastor Josh
Go.
Pastor Josh
The Bible tells us in the Book of Matthew to go and to spread the gospel, to share the truth of God with all people.
Pastor Josh
And that's what our goal is gonna be here at Middletown Baptist Church.
Pastor Josh
We, as the church, have a job, we have a purpose, we have a mission, and that is to go to the world to share the truth of God, to teach people what it means to follow him and to trust in him and to grow in his truth.
Pastor Josh
And so we're gonna be talking this Sunday about the need for us to go to places in our local community, to go to places outside of our community, and possibly to go around the world.
Pastor Josh
And so I hope that you can be there with us on Sunday as we look to what this year is going to bring for us as a church and really what the Lord is going to do in our midst if we obey Him.
Pastor Josh
And I think that this will be a wonderful challenge for all of us as believers here at this church.
Pastor Josh
And so you're able to be with us in person.
Pastor Josh
We'd love to see you if you're not able to be with us in person.
Pastor Josh
We do a live stream on YouTube and Facebook and we post it on Monday mornings here on the podcast channel.
Pastor Josh
So we are thankful for you following along throughout the year in 2024, and we're thankful for you being able to follow along here in this new year.
Pastor Josh
Well, God bless you.
Pastor Josh
Have a wonderful weekend.
Pastor Josh
We will hopefully hear from you soon.
Pastor Josh
Bless.
