DECEMBER OFFERING

In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

Matthew 5:16

From Pastors Kerry & Chris Shook

Dear Woodlands Church Family,

Three decades ago, when Woodlands Church was just a dream on our hearts from God, we could not fully imagine the widespread impact our church body would have on the world. As we celebrate over 30 years as a church, we stand in awe of what God has done through your faith, love and obedience.

As each day passes it becomes increasingly clear: our city, our nation and our world are in desperate need of God’s light. Even though darkness is trying to find new tactics to affect our relationships, harm our neighbors and to hide hope, we know that God’s power is still shining through the church — and we believe as we strive to shine brighter, God’s light will shatter the darkness all around us.

There is so much more God wants to do through Woodlands Church – and your gift equips the church to help make it happen. The only hope for our broken and hurting world is Jesus Christ restoring and rebuilding lives. Now is the time for our church to stand with boldness and power, and to share His light and change the world!

I looked again. I saw a huge crowd, too huge to count. Everyone was there—all nations and tribes, all races and languages.
