Text: Mark 16:1–8
Theme: The Gospel According to Mark
Preacher: Ps. Angelo Gomez

What a beautiful way to conclude our journey through the Gospel of Mark!

From the beginning of this series, we have seen Jesus as the Servant King—full of compassion, authority, holiness, and love. We followed Him through His ministry, His suffering, His sacrifice on the cross, and finally to the greatest victory of all—the empty tomb.

The resurrection is the foundation of our faith. Because Jesus lives:
✅ We can trust God's promises.
✅ We can receive His grace, no matter our failures.
✅ We have hope beyond the grave.
✅ We are called to share the Good News with the world.

The Gospel of Mark may have come to its final chapter, but the mission of the Gospel continues through every believer.

"He is risen! Now let us go and tell the world."

As Jesus commanded:

"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations..." — Matthew 28:19–20

May we not only celebrate the risen Savior but also faithfully proclaim Him wherever He sends us. The empty tomb is not the end of the story—it is the beginning of our mission.

To God be all the glory!

God uses people who are willing to seek Him wholeheartedly. Before Ezra became a leader, he was first a student of God's Word and a servant of His will. Be faithful in private, obedient in daily life, and ready for whatever purpose God has prepared for us.

Happy Birthday to this gorgeous teacher, Ma'am Almira! This day is a reminder of God's grace, joy, and faithfulness. “The Lord gives strength to His people; the Lord blesses His people with peace.” - Psalm 29:11. Enjoy the celebration as God's love, peace, and blessings continue to overflow throughout the year ahead. God bless you always!
