... shine as lights to the world, holding fast to the word of life ...

Philippians 2:15-16

Commissioned by God, we are to live and share the message of salvation found only in the sacrificial love of Jesus. Serving as beacons of light to the world, we are to BE about sharing the message of the Gospel. In addition, we are to BE Christ-like, taking on his persona in all we think, speak, and do. Let us strive to model Jesus in every aspect of our lives, celebrating the assurance that when we fall short, we are embraced in his forgiving love. We then strive again to be Christ-like in all we do and say, according to his will, with praise and thanks for the promise of eternal life and love.

Savior Jesus, guide me to be a beacon of light, joyfully serving others in your name. Amen.
