Father’s Day
June 21, 2015
We wish all fathers Happy Father’s Day. They are angels given to us by our Heavenly Father to care for us. On this special day, many brothers and sisters invite their fathers to come along and enjoy the love of the family. A photo corner was decorated for families to have a warm photo session with their fathers.
Brother Kin opened with a prayer, thanking God for all fathers. Brother Allen led the team to high praises while the congregation warmly welcomes each other then joined the team to praise and worship the Lord.
Fathers were then invited to stage and presented with a gift by the children church’s children. After the group photography, Pastor Gavin blessed them with prayers. Then brother Sam testified about how God blessed his family in different areas as he focus and draws closer to Him.
Ps. Gavin preached on ‘A father’s blessing for his beloved son’ from Gen 49:22-24. Three clear points rounded up the teaching: A fruitful bough by the well, the price for being the fruitful bough and the source of strength for the fruitful bough. Different situation of Joseph prophesied about Jesus Christ and His death to reconcile us to God. Fruitfulness comes from being nourished and when we are connected to Christ, nourishment flows abundantly. We need to listen, believe and trust for God is our strength, to nurture every generation to know the Truth.
After the altar call, fathers were invited to a tea reception. It was a blessed day and we could see happy faces of fathers, feeling loved and appreciated.
