St. Joseph Parish, Sylvania

church-newsletter-clipart-20“Draw your strength from the Lord and from His mighty power. Put on the armor of God.” Ephesians 6:10-11(a) Paul’s letter to the Ephesians reveals many remarkable gifts that we as Christians are given in the Church. It shows us the great inheritance that awaits us as sons and daughters, adopted fully into the family of God, and reveals how God’s great love for us can transform our daily lives. Ephesians will enrich your faith and show you how to live it out. This letter has been called the “crown and climax” of Pauline thought. Join us for this 8-week Bible Study that will be offered on Tuesday evenings (7:00-8:30) and Wednesday mornings (9:30-11:00) beginning September 25/26 in the East Campus meeting rooms.

Words of Faith

America on Its Knees 

 “If my people humble themselves and pray  and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sins and heal their land.”   2 Chronicles 7:14
 
Pastor Rebert2 PicOn January 25, 1968, the United States Congress, by a Joint Resolution of the 100th Congress, declared the first Thursday of each May to be recognized as a National Day of Prayer. Hence on this national holy day it is a good, time to reflect on prayer.   One prayer which touches my soul was written by Mr. Hilton.
Conrad Hilton (1887-1979), the founder of the Hilton Hotel chain, being a man of conviction during the fight against communism in the Cold War published this prayer on full page ads in major magazines on July 4, 1952.

Beautiful Feet ~ written by Jenifer Christiaanse, Emmanuel Baptist Church, Toledo, Ohio

PastorsNick Taylor came to Toledo on a track scholarship to attend the University of Toledo.  When he graduated from U.T., he left with a civil engineering degree in hand, a bride at his side, and Christ in his heart.  Through the witness of a roommate, and through the discipleship of Campus Bible Fellowship, Nick came to Christ and was grounded in the faith.  He continued to grow in Him as he and Amy became members of Emmanuel Baptist Church where the Taylors lent sweat and toil to many missions trips and served on the missions committee.  While still working, Nick obtained a seminary degree from Baptist Bible Seminary in Clarks Summit.  After an internship at EBC, Nick and Amy were called to full-time missions service.
