Greetings to the Covenant Family & Friends of the ministry! We invite you to join us for our weekly gathering today at 2:00 PM. This week, we are continuing our enriching study series, Highlights From The Book of Revelation. Together, we will be diving into Revelation 3:7-13, exploring the powerful and encouraging Letter to the Church of Philadelphia. In this passage, we see a message of hope, faithfulness, and perseverance, as Jesus commends this church for their steadfastness and assures them of the open door He has set before them. It is a timely reminder of God’s promises to those who remain faithful to Him, no matter the challenges they face. Come prepared to reflect on these truths and discover how they can strengthen and encourage us in our walk with Christ today. The study notes for this lesson will be available as an attachment to this blog post, so feel free to review them before or after the meeting. Let us come together with hearts ready to learn, grow, and worship our faithful God. We look forward to seeing you there! Glen & Jan Welch, CGMF Administrative Coordinators

Dear Covenant of Grace family, As we gather for our first service of 2025, we hope this message finds you refreshed and renewed after the holiday season. While the new year brings its share of uncertainties, we stand together as a community of faith, knowing that our hope is anchored in something far greater than worldly circumstances. Today, we continue our enlightening series "Highlights from the Book of Revelation" by examining the fourth of the seven churches - the Church of Sardis. This ancient city, once the capital of the wealthy Lydian empire, holds a powerful message for us today as we begin this new year. Sardis was a church that had a reputation for being alive, but was called out by Jesus as being spiritually dead. In a time when many of us might be setting new year's resolutions and reflecting on our spiritual journey, this message carries particular weight. What does it mean to truly be alive in Christ? How can we ensure our faith is authentic and vibrant, not just a facade? As we explore Revelation 3:1-6 together this afternoon, we'll discover both the warning and the hope contained in Christ's words to this church. The message to Sardis is a wake-up call - one that reminds us that spiritual complacency can affect any congregation, even those with impressive reputations. We look forward to diving deeper into this crucial passage together. Whether you're joining us in person or online, we invite you to come with an open heart and mind, ready to hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches - and to us - in 2025. Join us this afternoon as we explore how this ancient message speaks directly to our modern lives and challenges. Let's begin this new year by examining our own spiritual vitality and recommitting ourselves to being a church that's truly alive in Christ.

The Tale of Two Kings: A Reflection on Luke 2 As we gather tomorrow to reflect on the profound message of Luke 2, we delve into a tale of two kings—one earthly and one divine. This passage juxtaposes the reign of Caesar Augustus, the Roman emperor, with the humble birth of Jesus Christ, the King of Kings. Caesar Augustus was a ruler of immense power and influence. His decree for a census brought Joseph and Mary to Bethlehem, fulfilling the prophecy of the Messiah's birthplace. Augustus represents the epitome of worldly authority, commanding armies and shaping the fate of nations. In stark contrast, Jesus Christ entered the world in the most unassuming manner. Born in a manger, surrounded by animals, His arrival was heralded not by royal fanfare but by angels to shepherds in the fields. Jesus' kingship is marked by humility, love, and a mission to bring salvation to all. This juxtaposition invites us to reflect on the nature of true kingship. While Caesar's power was rooted in earthly dominion, Jesus' reign is eternal, characterized by grace and truth. His kingdom is not of this world, yet it transforms hearts and lives in ways that no earthly empire can. As we meditate on this passage, let us consider the implications of these two kings in our own lives. Are we seeking power and prestige, or are we following the example of Christ, embracing humility and service? The birth of Jesus challenges us to rethink our values and priorities, inviting us to align our lives with His teachings. Join us tomorrow as we explore this powerful narrative and its relevance to our journey of faith. May we be inspired by the humble King who came to serve and save, and may His love guide us in all that we do. Service is at 2 PM as always, live via Google Meet and at St. Martin of Tours in Omaha, Nebraska. The sermon notes for the message have been graciously forwarded to us by Reverend Vossen and have been uploaded to the blog. The audio portion will be made available as soon as possible. Christ's best this holiday season, Jan Welch, Administrative Coordinator Covenant of Grace Ministry & Fellowship
