This year’s series is the seven words of Christ spoken from the cross as He offered up His life for the life of the world. Each word imparts a blessing and is a word of Gospel. The series will expound on these words of Christ, linking them to Jesus’ words and works recorded in the Gospel as well as the Old Testament prophesies that pointed to Him. Each word of Christ proclaims and delivers something about Him, the Word Incarnate, and delivers His saving death to us that we would trust Him for forgiveness, life, and salvation. Services will be at 7:30 on Wednesday in Neligh and Thursday in Elgin.
We will have cookies in the Fellowship Hall after the services.
