Which is more polluted- the Seine or Sin?
Friday night in Paris welcomed the world to honor athletes from all nations. Amidst all the beauty in art, music, literature, architecture, etc, and the sacrifice made by the families and supporters of these athletes, how sad that opening ceremony organizers upstaged their guests in order to promote the trans movement and other policies that create unfair and unsafe conditions for girls and women, especially in sports. They made no apology for promoting ménage a' trois, drag queens and mocking Jesus Christ and Christians, in a degrading depiction of the Last Supper-the institution of communion of Body and Blood of the Lord with His disciples-the high point of worship for 2.4 million Christians. Their actions insult the very use of the word "inclusivity."

I repent.
This Lent God has been deeply calling to me to reach out to any I have offended or hurt.
To all our former MC students, interns, host, home, families, and churches, I am sorry. I ask forgiveness for the ways that my own lack of Christ’s love and ability to lead and manage may have hurt, or hindered anyone’s emotional or spiritual health.
I read Jesus‘s words in Mark 9:41 and realize how many times in my life others have given me a cup of cold water, and I pray that they will not lose their reward. But then I read in Matthew 10:42, and realize how I failed to give a cup of cold water to those younger or who were looking for the true love of Jesus and life on the kingdom of God.
MC’s came to learn and grow and serve and be trained and formed in Christ. Host families opened their hearts and homes. Churches participated. And so many excellent people and wonderful things happened. I give thanks for you all and cherish what God was able to do by His grace.
At the same time, I know that too often, I made it more about doing than being. I was too much and too often controlled by my own soul: my need to be in charge or make the program or the meeting or myself appear successful. I realize that many left the program still thirsty for grace and love and healing. Some left hurt, or possibly even hindered in their relationship to God and passion to serve him with their whole life instead of just nine months in a program.
All of that is my own responsibility and I ask your forgiveness. I repent.
I pray God‘s love and healing for you wherever and whenever you need to encounter his love and truth. I thank God for the privilege and joy of having those years with you all, and the wonderful ways you each added value to my life. Thank you.
Grace and peace to you all in the love of Christ,
Pastor Dwight

The Welcome house on hill is where David and Emily Shay and precious family host gatherings like the KMUSA this week. As soon as we arrived he took us to the spot where right after the fire we prayed with them for restoration. It's so meaningful to us and to them for us to be here representing all of our team that was here in that traumatic time. Love to you all. More pics to follow.

Advent is a time to remember the Master’s martyrs and all those persecuted in modern as well as ancient times as in this hymn from the daily devotional Magnificat:
Listen to the cloud that brightens
Hearts that stumble in the shade.
Hear the cloud of great believers,
Heed the witness they have made:
Prophets who have raged in judgment,
Martyrs killed by flame and sword,
Bold reformers through the ages,
Common folk who loved the Lord.
Here they made their costly witness,
Here upon this trodden ground
Where the one whose path they followed
With a wreath of thorns was crowned.
Now they call from that dominion
Past the range of mortal sight,
Joined with Christ in one communion
Of eternal song and light.

The older sister of one of our former Masters commisssion students, Sarah Sundberg, died suddenly, just minutes after talking to Sarah on the phone. Nothing confirmed yet but it may have been an aneurysm. She was 27 years old and had no history of health problems so the family is shocked and needing God's comfort and presence.
Sarah asks and we pray for safety and peace for family members traveling to gather by tomorrow night in Ohio, from Canada and the state and her father is flying in from Russia.
We also pray for Sarah's own health because she has been extra stressed and having headaches.
We pray God give great grace and love and support this hurting family and bring good out of this painful loss in their family.
May God give them peace remembering her precious life here and comfort that she is in the presence of Jesus now.
