Sunday Service: Visiting Preacher - Gian Luca Derudas

Tomorrow we'll have our morning service to worship God together and to proclaim His Word in Budrio.

 

 

 

 

 

We are glad for the Lord's provision of the meeting room at the social center Magnolia, a well known cultural meeting point right at the centre of Budrio.

At 10.15 we'll start our service and Gian Luca Derudas, pastor of the New Life Church in Bologna and member of the Italian Board of Acts 29 - Impatto, will preach on: "Be courageous! Jesus comes (always) at the right time" from Joshua 5.

During the service we'll have a children's club where kids will engage with the same Bible passage.

We will celebrate the Lord's Supper, sharing bread and wine as a church family, proclaiming the death and resurrection of the Lord, until he comes!

Discipleship Groups

From the 25th to the 3rd of November we will have our 5 discipleship groups in Budrio and Molinella where we'll interact with the module: Union with Christ, engaging with Unit 3. The Work Of The Spirit.

 

Union with Christ is the centre of the gospel. It’s been called the central doctrine of salvation. This course will teach you how the profound truth of a Christian's union and identity with Christ drives us to mission and joy in him. All that Christ has achieved for his people is ours through our union with him. Heart change and mission flow out of who Jesus is, and how we are bound to him by faith. This course will teach you to understand and enjoy your relationship with Jesus in everyday life on mission.

Preaching at the Amazing Grace Church in Modena

 

Tomorrow Stefano will be with our friends from the Amazing Grace Church in Modena for their Sunday service. He will preach from Psalm 9: Prayers and tears heard!

Stefano has known Daniele Rebecchi, pastor of the church, for years and has the privilege of serving together on the national board of The Gospel Coalition Italy.

Theology for Breakfast

Tomorrow we'll continue
our series of meetings:  
Theology for Breakfast! 
Following Luther's Table Talks example, we'll meet from 9 to 11am @ Central Café in Mezzolara where, while enjoying a breakfast with capuccino & croissants, we'll engage with God's Word discovering the beauty of theology in our everyday life!

Together we'll interact with the module: Union with Christ, concluding Unit 3. The Work Of The Spirit.

Sunday Service: Psalm 7 - A cry to the Lord for justice!

Tomorrow we'll have our morning service to worship God together and to proclaim His Word in Budrio.

 

 

 

 

 

We are glad for the Lord's provision of the meeting room at the social center Magnolia, a well known cultural meeting point right at the centre of Budrio.

At 10.15 we'll start our service continuing our series on the Book of Psalms, engaging with Psalm 7 - A cry to the Lord for justice!

We'll have a children's talk where kids will engage with the same Bible passage.

 

The reformer John Calvin, in the preface to his commentary on the Psalms, wrote: "I have been accustomed to call this book, I think not inappropriately, “An Anatomy of all the Parts of the Soul;” for there is not an emotion of which any one can be conscious that is not here represented as in a mirror." 

Indeed the Psalms speak of hope and fear, of love and hate, of discouragement and thanksgiving, but above all, the Psalms speak to us of Christ (Luke 24:44) and lead us to Christ: the Servant-King, the Messiah-Redeemer! The Psalms are not poems to thrill us in private, but are the powerful praise that the united people of the church, with missional passion sing to their Lord. Each Psalm therefore asks us for an answer: will you remain in the audience of the fools who say that 'there is no God', or will you join the chorus of those justified by Jesus?

AppPsalms - Mid-Week Bible Study

Tomorrow evening we'll have our AppPsalms (Applying Psalms Book I), our series of Mid-Week Bible Studies in which we'll keep interacting with what we're learning through the preaching in our Sunday services.  

We'll meet at the Orologio Café, in Budrio, where we'll engage with Psalms 4 to 6.

Sunday Service: Psalm 6 - Prayers and tears heard!
