Sermon: “When the Final Gavel Falls"  - by Randy Roberts

Pastoral Welcome: Ice Family

Scripture Reading: Matthew 25:31-40 read by Darold Retzer and Filip Milosavljevic

Sermon Notes: As another camp meeting season comes to a close, I find my heart filled with gratitude. I am so very thankful for the overall team that pulls together to make camp meeting a reality. That overall team is made up of a number of smaller teams: our pastoral staff, our administrative support staff, our maintenance department, all of our fine musicians, and, without question, our media team! These and many others have worked tirelessly to make Camp Meeting 2016 a resounding success. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! It is my sincere hope and prayer that (at least) two things have happened during this camp meeting season: 1) that a deeper yearning has been ignited in your heart to see and be with Jesus; and 2) that a biblical and focused way of living EverReady for His coming has been ignited in your soul. If those two things have been accomplished, then all the work and prayer have been worth it. Today I offer one last passage from Matthew 25 – one final way of living EverReady. This passage is well-known for Jesus’ line: “If you have done it unto one of the least of these brothers or sisters of Mine, you have done it to Me.” Today, we will consider just how that correlates with the theme of being EverReady

Maranatha!
