Today we will be meeting Jeremiah. Right away we relate to Jeremiah because he doesn’t feel like he is the person for the job. All too often we make excuses for not doing things for God or in growing our faith. We then meet two others, Baruch shows us what it is like to be willing to serve, while the Recabites show us what it looks like to be faithful. What excuses do you need to stop using and how does serving and faithfulness look in your life?

Thank you to everyone who gave so generously towards our Rocky Mountain High trip! Please pray for us as we join thousands of youth and adults in worship and spiritual growth. The Spirit is always present at Rocky and it's the perfect time for lives to be changed and God is faithful to answer prayer. We truly appreciate your support!
