Search & Rescue

Yesterday, we as a family at Faith Chapel, looked at our purpose while here on earth - to Search & Rescue!

1. As a believer, you are to look for the lost and drowning.

2. As a believer, you carry the life preserver.

Poor Flotation Devices:

a. pleasure

b. possessions

c. pride (about me)

3. As a believer, you must develop the skills necessary to rescue the perishing.

The committed crew must be committed to:

a. His commandments

b. His commission

Skills needed:

prayer, fasting, reading His Word, learning & growing from other believers

We are on a mission to search and rescue those who are lost and are dying. We still have plenty of room in our lifeboat for people to be rescued. Let's do our part!
