Chapel: September 10th
Our guest speaker this week was Jeff Sargent, the youth pastor from Northeast Baptist Church in Clinton, Mo. The main idea of this chapel was that God is always there for you, even when you are going through a rough patch. We looked at the book of Luke, Chapter 8. There was a demon possessed man running through the town. When he saw Jesus, he fell to his knees and begged Jesus to cast the demon out of him. Jesus did just that. When Jesus was leaving the town, the man wanted to go with Him, but Jesus told him to stay in the town, go back to his home and tell everyone what He had done for him. Thank you for speaking today!
