Hymns, Jason Quick, Pastor Joe

HIGH SCHOOL CHAPEL

Tuesday: Our third hymn chapel featured students introducing each song. All Creatures of Our God and King: harp and piano intro. A Mighty Fortress is Our God: sung in German and Korean for the intro. String ensemble lead us into Amazing Grace. Blessed Assurance Jesus is Mine began with a stirring trombone quartet. Kendra and Judy sang the Doxology first and then we all joined in.

Thursday: Jason Quick, missionary with WorldVenture in the Philippines, spoke. He related how difficult it can be to go to another country. The culture is so different: the way people speak, think, act, shop, celebrate, and just how they live out their lives. As Christians we live in a "worldly culture". We are called to be different. How can we do this? We can learn from Daniel as a young man in exile in Babylon. He connected with others who were like-minded (Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego). Wherever we go in life, like for the seniors to college next year, it is vital to connect with others who are like-minded in the faith. Their website is http://jasonsarahquick.com

MIDDLE SCHOOL CHAPEL

Pastor Joe, originally from Chicago, is a pastor in the West Bank in Palestine. He related amazing stories of how God is working among Muslims. There are numerous people in his church who have come to faith in Jesus Christ through dreams and visions and miracles. You could hear a pin drop, as Pastor Joe gave testimony to God's grace being poured out in Palestine!
