Here are is a brief summary of The Sunday Gathering~

• Thank you George Lai! He led the group with scripture from Romans 12:1-2
• He told us that he and James Chuck have had discussions about this verse many times and that this verse easily “sums” up the first 11 chapters of the Bible. He also mentioned the verse is very timely for our Church because we are welcoming change and a new Senior Pastor.
• He broke it down in 2 very important sentences:

1. “I appeal to you therefore, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is spiritual worship.
2. Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what it’s he will of God—what is good and acceptable and perfect.

          Trust God, he has a plan for us, he knows what is best for us, we should joyfully give   

           Ourselves as living sacrifices for his service.

• Thank you Shirlene! She led The Sunday Gathering planning meeting
• Open discussion as to what the group needs are and how to manage the group going forward
• Barbara Lym will coordinate the Sunday Gathering for 2018. Ensuring we have a speaker or a lesson for the day. Communicating to the group class announcements, schedule changes, and organizing refreshments with Victor Lee.
