PASTOR’S THOUGHTS
REMNANT YOUNG ADULTS / STUDENTS
SENIOR PASTOR SAM VALVERDE
Welcome to our young adult / student ministries page. Our purpose is to facilitate discipleship and deliverance and to move the Kingdom of God forward. We fill our calendar with prayer nights, worship nights and investing into people.
YOUNG ADULT/STUDENT PRAYER NIGHT
Friday, September 14, 2012 @ 7:30 PM / Q&A Room Join us for an evening of intimate prayer, worship and great fellowship. If you’d like to connect here is a great place to start. Arrive early as we will have a full house.
THEME for SEPTEMBER COURAGE
CONNECT WITH THE REMNANT www.wearetheremnant.org
“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.” I Corinthians 15:58
D
on’t forget, you will receive a reward! Everything you and I do for the Kingdom, will have a handsome recompense. Even a glass of water given in His name will not be without reward. I’m amazed at the way FTC comes together to abound in the work of the Lord. Whether it is a concert, seminar or community giveaway, I’m amazed at how quickly and efficiently we come together and get the job done. I’m amazed at how ushers and greeters arrive early, leave late and stand throughout entire events. I’m amazed at how platform ministries - from singers and musicians to technicians and stage hands will give up their entire weekend for Kingdom work.
Watch the testimonies! www.vimeo.com
I’m amazed at how the Administration and office staff put in long and extra hours to make sure that not only things get done, but they get done right. I’m amazed at how servers and helpers work tirelessly to serve people they don’t even know. I’m amazed at how clean-up and set-up crews get to work immediately when the lights are off and the people are gone.
https://twitter.com/TheRemnant_
I’m amazed at the efficiency, kindness and professionalism displayed by all who work. I’m amazed at how preachers and teachers, ministers and Core Leaders invest their time and talents into the work of the Lord.
https://www.facebook.com/TheRemnantFTC
I’m amazed at how you all do it with a smile. But it’s not really important that I’m amazed. The important thing is that the Word says that your labor is not in vain in the Lord! Thank you! May the Lord bless you richly. Smiling with Him, Pastor Sam Valverde
