Engaging God in all of life, Discovering God deeper, and Sharing the Love of God May 20, 2018 Rev. Don Thompson Senior Pastor Pastor Mike Anderson Worship Leader & Executive Pastor Church Bulletin An Invitation to Discipleship from Pastor Don “To follow Jesus Christ is the most important decision you will ever make. If you have not made this decision, then a simple prayer, offered in faith can be the beginning of a new life for you. Let me encourage you to pray: “God, be merciful to me, a sinner. Thank you for the grace of your Son Jesus Christ, poured out on the cross for my forgiveness. I confess him as my Savior, put my whole trust in his grace and promise to serve him as my Lord. Thank you for the gift of eternal life, through Jesus Christ Amen” 93 North Fifth Street, Macclenny, FL 32063 | 904-259-3551 | www.firstumcmacclenny.org
