Gratia Offers First Sunday Service and New Year Celebration

On January 1, 2023, Gratia Church held a graceful Sunday service, full of God’s word, praise, worship, and fellowship. The sermon delivered by Pastor Walker Tzeng, was on Ephesians 4:20-24 entitled “Put on the new self”.

In the sermon, Pastor Walker encouraged church members to start the new year with Jesus Christ in their hearts. First, its about remember our first heart when we came to faith in Jesus Christ and never losing that passionate faith. Next, its about putting off our old self which has been corrupted by deceitful desires of sin in this world, covering up the beautiful image of God we were created in. Then, its about accepting by faith Jesus Christ in our hearts, the perfect one who lived holy and righteous. Finally, its about putting on our new self, not by ourselves, but the power God who transforms us to be Christ-like and in His glory.

After the service, church members went to Pastor Walker and Pastor Julia’s house to celebrate New Years by making dumplings together. It was a joyful time to share in God’s grace and start the New Year giving the first back to God.
