NOVEMBER CHARACTER TRAIT IS COURAGE
YOUTH SUNDAY RECAP
"Gratitude Makes You Whole"
Youth Pastor Elenah Kelly preached a powerful lesson entitled, "Gratitude Makes You Whole". Her
main scripture reference was Luke 17:11-19 and the following objectives were shared:
- Review the story of the Ten Lepers. Healed vs. Whole
- Recognize how familiarity breeds ingratitude
- Recognize how complaining is the enemy of gratitude
- Recognize that ingratitude is a matter of the heart - acknowledge, appreciate, take action
As you go throughout your week,
remember the enemy of gratitude is complaining.
You can view the service below or through any of our other social media platforms.

CHARACTER TRAIT FOR DECEMBER IS CARING
It is the act of displaying kindness and concern for others.
DECEMBER PRAYER FOCUS
Prayer of Thanksgiving to the Father who loved the world so much that you gave your one and only Son, our Lord Jesus Christ...that when the time had fully come, he wrapped himself in Human form, being born as a helpless baby in a poor family. Thank you that he walked here on earth radiating the brightness of your glory and flawlessly expressing your name….and so through him people saw you in action, involved with them available to meet their needs. Thank you that he focused your almighty power into the lives of common people with deep needs, just like me…that he preached the gospel to the poor, proclaimed freedom to prisoners of sin and recovery of sight to the blind, and set free the oppressed victims of sin and Satan – the downtrodden, the lost, the hurting, the broken. Thank you for the way he rebuked the arrogant and looked with favor on the humble minded, opening wide the door of his kingdom to those who were destitute and helpless in spirit. I delight in your tender mercies, O my God, by which the Sunrise from on high has come to us.
