A Zhejiang church held a celebration for the ninth anniversary of its founding.
During the second Sunday service on October 10 in Panshi Church, Hangzhou, a praise meeting themed Just Believe and Don't Be Afraid was launched. At the outset, the bilingual fellowship presented hymns such as "Everybody Ought to Know" to explain to believers and seekers that Jesus is the creator of the universe and means everything to each of us.
Next, the choir sang three songs including "Set Your Mind", encouraging listeners to follow Jesus, the almighty Creator of the heavens, the earth and the sea.
Later, a female Christian shared a testimony about her ten-and-a-half-month-old daughter, who suffered from a dangerous cyst in the mother’s womb. Receiving treatment in the hospital after birth, the baby was cured by God when doctors were at a loss on what to do.
Afterward, the choir performed the anthems "The Lord is My Strength" and "All Things Are Possible".
In addition, Rev. Hu gave a sermon entitled "The Possibility of a Happy Life", sharing why, how and for what to be happy about. Quoting the story of the Prodigal Son, he emphasized that Christians would be fortunate to have an intimate relationship with the Father in a materialistic world. God also bore witness to the Son: "This is my Son whom I love; with whom I am well-pleased!" He loved us so much that He sent His only son Jesus to die on the cross for us sinners. In a way that we could understand and accept, the Lord showed that we were deeply loved by Him. Despite suffering, a happy life is possible through the love of the Heavenly Father.
