Elder Jerry Hsu sharing about CRAFTSMANSHIP. 1. The first filling of the Holy Spirit in the Bible was for the gift of crafts and design! 2. Our Lord Jesus himself was a craftsman, a carpenter. 3. God is the Master Craftsman who made you, His masterpiece!... EXODUS 31:1-5 "Then the LORD said to Moses, See, I have called by name Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability, and knowledge in all kinds of craftsmanship, to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze, to cut gemstones for settings, and to carve wood, so that he may be a master of every craft."

Join us for THE RETURN Simulcast tomorrow morning from 8AM to 12PM at the church parking lot. The schedule and speakers are lined up. We will join many prominent Evangelical leaders in America to pray for our nation. I know some people may feel disconnected to these speakers who are unknown to you, and hesitate to participate. However, the point is not in the speakers. It's the message that they carry at this critical hour in American history. God placed us in this countr...y for a purpose. We are not here by accident. This is our home. This is our city. God commands us to rise and shine in this nation. Let's answer God's call to prayer together, and be blessed! ps. For those who have limited English, I will be able to help do some simple translation at the church. Your whole family is welcome. Kids are welcome. Please wear a mask. Stay home if you're sick. ps. if you are watching it from home and need translation, go here and select your language on the drop down menu: https://www.live.thereturn.org/

DEATH THAT BRINGS LIFE (John 12:20-36) Pastor Sam Boyce https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFZ8c-kVKRw

HUMILITY (John 13:1-17) Pastor KC Liu https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwpRzhBq__8

This was THE RETURN (to GOD) kickoff prayer meeting last Friday 9/18. It was a really precious time to be able to pray together in person. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tA3bK9cKgk&

We stand at a critical time in American history. We have never seen so much division and destruction in America in our lifetime. It will get worse if we do not stand in the gap with corporate prayer. Let's come together and humble ourselves and pray for the healing and revival of our great nation. Join us this Saturday for THE RETURN (to GOD) Simulcast at EFCI Parking Lot. We will be watching the national prayer gathering in Washington DC. Come join anytime from 8AM to 12PM. *Just to clarify, there will be no worship team, no preaching from EFCI people. We are simply watching and participating in the event on TV. Pastor KC will prepare the flat screen TV, and set up a MIC so that we can rotate in prayer in the parking lot.
