We are a mission driven church and we 25 00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:22.120 love souls. God is after souls one hundred percent, and 26 00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:24.879 it's our part to do the giving, the going, and 27 00:01:24.920 --> 00:01:25.439 the doing. 28 00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:27.079 He's the one that gives the vision. 29 00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:30.799 He does all of the mighty workout there and changing 30 00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:32.680 lives and that kind of thing, and we get to 31 00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:34.680 be a part. He doesn't just do it without us. 32 00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:36.799 We get to do it with him. And that's the 33 00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:40.159 cool thing. And so today we're gonna do a little 34 00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:42.439 bit more mobilizing helping you see what we have. 35 00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:44.239 Done already, and it's going. 36 00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:47.400 To be a lot of fun today during worship and 37 00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:50.280 just kind of as the day has been progressing, I 38 00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:55.000 have had just a strong feeling that the Lord wants 39 00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:57.040 to make sure that every single one of us know 40 00:01:57.200 --> 00:02:02.719 how important every single soul is. That every single soul, 41 00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:05.879 whether they are young, whether they are old, whether they 42 00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:09.240 have different skin colors, all the different nations, all the 43 00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:12.840 different tribes, all the different tongues, whether they are sitting 44 00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:16.120 in a pile of dirt with no shoes on and 45 00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:19.159 it flies all over the place and kind of smelly, 46 00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:22.400 or if they're sitting in the most highest places of 47 00:02:22.520 --> 00:02:25.240 power in the world. God loves them. They are a 48 00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:28.639 soul that bears the image of him. They are a 49 00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:33.080 soul that He has created and made, and He loves 50 00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:37.400 every single one equally. Romans ten. I want you to 51 00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:39.520 turn to Romans ten. I'm gonna give it to you 52 00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:41.759 in the passion. So if you could put it up there, 53 00:02:41.800 --> 00:02:44.599 I would love it. Let me see, maybe I can 54 00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:45.439 open it up here. 55 00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:47.199 Is it up there? 56 00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:50.319 Okay, so you guys can all follow along with me. 57 00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:53.479 Hold on just a second here, because I want an 58 00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:55.560 extra verse here. I'm gonna go a little bit farther 59 00:02:55.680 --> 00:03:00.680 than what's up there Romans Chapter ten, Versus thirteen. And 60 00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:03.879 it's true, everyone who calls on the name of the 61 00:03:03.919 --> 00:03:04.560 Lord will. 62 00:03:04.439 --> 00:03:07.039 Be rescued and experienced new life. 63 00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:11.719 When before this was written, the people of God were 64 00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:15.120 kind of relegated to the Jews, and the gentiles really 65 00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:19.199 didn't have access into the things of God. But things 66 00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:22.719 changed when Jesus Christ came onto this earth, when he 67 00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:26.159 walked as we walk, and he died on the cross 68 00:03:26.199 --> 00:03:27.919 for every single soul. 69 00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:33.080 And now it is written that everyone, everyone who calls 70 00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:36.439 on the name of the Lord will be saved. 71 00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:42.800 Everyone will will be rescued and experience new life. But 72 00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:46.919 how can people call on him for help? If they 73 00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:50.280 have not yet believed, And how can they believe in 74 00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:53.120 one they have not yet heard of? And how can 75 00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:56.159 they hear the message of life if there was no 76 00:03:56.240 --> 00:04:00.520 one there to proclaim it? And how can them message 77 00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:03.599 proclaimed if messengers have yet to be sent. 78 00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:07.319 That's why the scriptures say, and here's my added one? 79 00:04:07.960 --> 00:04:11.919 Or did it get added up? There? It got at it? 80 00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:12.759 Did it get added? 81 00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:17.720 That's why the scriptures say, how welcome is the arrival 82 00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:21.720 of those proclaiming the joyful news of peace and of 83 00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:23.040 good things to come? 84 00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:25.199 How beautiful? 85 00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:29.879 Other translations say, are the feet of those who bring 86 00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:33.839 the good news? I am here to say today that 87 00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:36.800 anyone who calls on the name of the Lord will 88 00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:37.560 be saved. 89 00:04:37.839 --> 00:04:41.360 But there is a problem. There are so many people 90 00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:42.000 in this world. 91 00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:44.800 They do not know the story of Jesus, do not 92 00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:48.560 know the life that's available to them, and they are lost, 93 00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:53.720 lost in sin, lost in witchcraft, lost in brokenness, lost 94 00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:56.959 in the mess that this world wants to hand us. 95 00:04:57.360 --> 00:04:59.519 And he is saying God to say, I want to 96 00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:00.519 partner with you. 97 00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:02.920 I'm waiting for a people. 98 00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:06.439 I am waiting for a people to partner with him 99 00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:09.040 who are willing to step up and say I will 100 00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:13.040 be a messenger for you. I will be one that 101 00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:16.600 will go I will make my feet beautiful and be 102 00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:20.399 the one that will walk into places around this world 103 00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:21.519 no matter where you walk. 104 00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:23.800 Some of you walk into places I don't walk. 105 00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:26.519 Well, let me just tell you you are a proclaimer 106 00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:31.480 of the message of Christ wherever you go. And we 107 00:05:31.519 --> 00:05:35.000 are called not only to proclaim the message of God 108 00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:38.319 here in Fife, which we are doing. And you're gonna 109 00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:40.639 hear a little bit more about that in just a moment, 110 00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:44.079 because I'm telling you what.

Her face lit up 143 00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:17.439 and she looked at her her colleague, the guy that 144 00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:20.639 she was working with, and she said, see, she said 145 00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:24.040 that morning when they had come to work, they had 146 00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:28.240 been low on customers.

The word of the Lord has gone 166 00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:29.399 forth like never before. The proclamation of the Gospel has 167 00:08:29.439 --> 00:08:36.279 been like nothing before.

The 184 00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:28.440 Krama Jung tribe is way up north in Uganda. It 185 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:31.840 took us twelve hours to drive their people, twelve hours 186 00:09:32.360 --> 00:09:34.840 stuffed in a van, and most of that time it 187 00:09:34.919 --> 00:09:37.279 was a dirt road. A lot of time was spent 188 00:09:37.360 --> 00:09:43.360 on you know this guy?

And here we walk in. Hello. 200 00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:36.639 We got a message the night before from gal here 201 00:10:36.639 --> 00:10:42.000 at the church, and she said, what I see is 202 00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:44.360 a golden dome of protection around you. 203 00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:46.480 I didn't even know I needed to be protected at 204 00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:47.519 that point. 205 00:10:47.600 --> 00:10:50.759 A golden dome of protection over you, and that there 206 00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:53.720 are golden angels standing and all this stuff about gold. 207 00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.159 Little did I know as well, And little. 208 00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:59.360 Did she know that in this area they have discovered gold, 209 00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:04.440 and this tribe now is sitting on gold and they're 210 00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:06.120 trying to figure out what to do with this gold. 211 00:11:06.159 --> 00:11:11.799 This tribe is very, very backward. In fact, even the 212 00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:15.000 Ugandans don't like to go into this tribe because they're 213 00:11:15.120 --> 00:11:16.480 and they call them savages. 214 00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:18.840 It's crazy. 215 00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:21.799 And we drove right into the middle of it, right 216 00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:28.320 through the grove and found a little church meeting under 217 00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:33.480 a tree, and we. 218 00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:38.320 Shared the gospel.

I don't 222 00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:48.159 know about you, but sometimes feet are funny. But you 223 00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:52.600 know what God says about your feet, They are beautiful, 224 00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:58.399 especially when you're carrying the good news of Jesus. 225 00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:03.919 Amen.

Okay, 229 00:12:10.240 --> 00:12:14.919 So let's have some fun. This is our trip. This 230 00:12:14.960 --> 00:12:18.080 one's on tarmac, though it's not dirt. 231 00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:24.759 Everybody, every Yes, we had a lot of time just 232 00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:27.120 singing songs. 233 00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:30.879 Hello, this is Pastor Joel and I had the privilege 234 00:12:30.879 --> 00:12:34.639 and honor of leading this spectacular team to Uganda. 235 00:12:34.679 --> 00:12:37.159 One of my personal highlights was the last day that 236 00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:38.039 we were out. 237 00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:42.399 In Karamojo and we were driving into this town center 238 00:12:42.440 --> 00:12:44.960 called knock up here Pirit, which is known to be 239 00:12:45.080 --> 00:12:51.159 the center of six districts around for witchcraft and worship 240 00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:55.399 of evil and just horrible things. There is a grove 241 00:12:55.519 --> 00:12:57.559 they call it a shrine, and that's where people over 242 00:12:57.639 --> 00:13:00.519 the following three weeks were going to gather and begin 243 00:13:00.600 --> 00:13:03.720 to do animal sacrifices and pray to their gods. 244 00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:05.039 We drove right. 245 00:13:04.879 --> 00:13:07.159 Into the center of that town. There was a little 246 00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:10.519 church that met under a tree, and we met the pastor. 247 00:13:10.639 --> 00:13:14.279 We joined into their service. Every team member was able 248 00:13:14.320 --> 00:13:17.600 to give their testimony. Each testimony was sharpened by the 249 00:13:17.639 --> 00:13:21.919 Holy Spirit. Everyone sitting there under that tree was listening 250 00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:27.080 with great attention and an amazing response. The gospel was planted, 251 00:13:27.399 --> 00:13:29.879 and we believe that that tree is going to become 252 00:13:29.919 --> 00:13:33.000 a church on actual church building, and it is going 253 00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:35.600 to be a light that shines in the darkness. 254 00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:41.120 To remind you Jesus is here. 255 00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:50.480 So my story, yeah. 256 00:13:55.399 --> 00:14:01.320 Hi, I mean Angelillis And one of my favorites experiences 257 00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:04.879 was being in room but they as they were building 258 00:14:04.919 --> 00:14:08.960 this stage, I sat and the children just surrounded me 259 00:14:09.720 --> 00:14:13.600 and I was able to bless them and talk with them. 260 00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:17.399 And then as they lined up, I was able to 261 00:14:17.519 --> 00:14:23.720 pray and bless them each again, and one just really 262 00:14:23.840 --> 00:14:30.720 stopped and covered his face and wept and it was beautiful. 263 00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:33.320 I'm Sandy.

It encouraged the women so much, 286 00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:55.240 and it was it was more than just touching their 287 00:15:55.279 --> 00:15:58.879 lives in a physical way. It was touching their lives spiritually, 288 00:15:59.320 --> 00:16:03.120 and I believe that it'll have impact on their future. 289 00:16:03.639 --> 00:16:05.080 So it was a wonderful time. 290 00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:11.600 Hi. 291 00:16:11.679 --> 00:16:14.600 I'm Stephanie, and I got to go on the trip 292 00:16:14.679 --> 00:16:19.120 to Uganda and for our outreach, we went to the 293 00:16:19.320 --> 00:16:23.559 northeastern part and we went to three cities and did 294 00:16:23.600 --> 00:16:24.440 a feeding. 295 00:16:24.120 --> 00:16:25.559 Program for the villages. 296 00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:29.879 And so we were in the tiny and a rupa 297 00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:33.120 and knackau peri pirit and the people would come from 298 00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:34.799 all over and there were so many kids and they 299 00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:38.519 would bring their plate and for some of the people 300 00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:40.840 it was their only meal at the day or possibly 301 00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:46.559 a few days, and so watching them receive the food 302 00:16:46.679 --> 00:16:48.919 and then eat the food and then come and say 303 00:16:49.000 --> 00:16:52.960 thank you and wave and just show so much gratitude 304 00:16:53.639 --> 00:16:54.559 was incredible. 305 00:16:54.919 --> 00:16:56.279 It was an amazing experience. 306 00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:18.440 I'm Terry. 307 00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:22.880 I got to go on the Uganda trip.

They turned the 311 00:17:40.079 --> 00:17:43.799 electricity on and these children just started coming out of 312 00:17:43.799 --> 00:17:48.359 the woodwork.

There were guys that 323 00:18:24.440 --> 00:18:27.720 could shovel cement and place it, but not too many 324 00:18:27.759 --> 00:18:31.319 that who could finish it a little bit do some 325 00:18:31.359 --> 00:18:33.880 of them there, and I have quite a bit of experience, 326 00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:36.279 so that gave me a lot of joy. The other 327 00:18:36.319 --> 00:18:41.519 thing that really found amazingly joyful was the kids response 328 00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:44.400 to seeing themselves on my selfie function on my phone. 329 00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:46.960 I'd show them the phone with the selfie function and 330 00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:48.960 they'd see their face and they giggle and laugh, and 331 00:18:48.960 --> 00:18:51.160 then they'd get pulled out of the way because their 332 00:18:51.160 --> 00:18:52.640 brother or sister wanted to see it, and then their 333 00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:55.440 friend wanted to see themselves, and it was just a 334 00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:58.160 tumultuous time of joy and laughter. 335 00:18:58.279 --> 00:19:01.680 And fun beautiful. 336 00:19:24.319 --> 00:19:24.440 Hi. 337 00:19:24.480 --> 00:19:24.920 I'm Joe. 338 00:19:24.960 --> 00:19:25.160 Hey. 339 00:19:25.279 --> 00:19:28.559 It's been a great couple of weeks in Uganda.

They've felt frustrated, they 345 00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:50.039 felt lonely, they felt abandoned, and they felt like they 346 00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:51.640 wanted to quit, and we were able to pray with 347 00:19:51.720 --> 00:19:54.119 them and the power of the Holy Spirit hit them 348 00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:57.400 and we believe their lives have been changed forever.

That is the little pastor couple 366 00:21:21.920 --> 00:21:25.359 from the Congo that we raised money for them to 367 00:21:25.440 --> 00:21:27.480 be able to build their church.

So lots of great time there. 384 00:22:13.440 --> 00:22:14.119 As you could see. 385 00:22:14.119 --> 00:22:17.240 We did hands on, we did ministry, we did everything. 386 00:22:17.720 --> 00:22:19.920 We're starting to work on our dates for this coming 387 00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:23.039 year for missions trips. Who wants to go with us? 388 00:22:24.200 --> 00:22:25.759 Who wants beautiful feet? 389 00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:30.759 That should be everyone? Okay, so very quickly, ushers, if 390 00:22:30.759 --> 00:22:32.240 you would come forward. I failed to do this at 391 00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:35.440 the very beginning. But if you are new here at New. 392 00:22:35.359 --> 00:22:37.799 Horizon and don't know all the things that we do 393 00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:40.759 for missions around here, I have a missions magazine to 394 00:22:40.799 --> 00:22:41.160 give to you. 395 00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:43.559 It's the same one we did last spring. So if 396 00:22:43.559 --> 00:22:45.160 you got it back then don't worry about it. 397 00:22:45.160 --> 00:22:46.920 But if you are new, I would love for you 398 00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:49.839 to raise your hand and the ushers will get you 399 00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:52.359 one and make sure that you know all of the 400 00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:54.759 things about what we do here at New Horizon, meet 401 00:22:54.799 --> 00:22:58.599
