✨💙 SOUL💙✨

This week at SOUL, we explored Acts 1–4 and discovered how the early Church grew through the power of the Holy Spirit! 🌟🕊️

We learned that:
🙏 Jesus promised His followers they would receive power from the Holy Spirit.
🔥 At Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came in a mighty way, giving the disciples courage to share the Good News.
🤝 The believers cared for one another, prayed together, and shared what they had.
❤️ Even when life was difficult, they boldly proclaimed that Jesus is alive!

Just like the first Christians, we are called to love, encourage, and support one another as we share the hope of Jesus with the world.

“There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” – Acts 4:12

We even made some awesome necktie cards in view of Father’s Day. Reminding us of course of our compassionate Heavenly Father. Thank you to everyone who joined us for another wonderful SOUL gathering filled with faith, friendship, laughter, and love. We can’t wait to see you again! ✨

🌟 SOUL 🌟

Today at SOUL, we spent time learning from Acts 1:1–14 and reflecting on Jesus’ final instructions to His disciples before His ascension into heaven.

In this passage, Jesus reminds His followers of God’s promise and tells them to wait for the gift of the Holy Spirit. The disciples watched as Jesus was taken up into heaven, and then they returned to Jerusalem united in prayer, trusting God’s plan and waiting with hopeful hearts.

💭 What can we learn from this passage?
✨ Jesus keeps His promises.
✨ We can trust God’s timing, even when we have to wait.
✨ Prayer brings God’s people together.
✨ God has a purpose for each of us as we share His love with others.

Today we talked about how waiting can be hard, but God is always at work, even when we cannot see it. Just as the disciples waited faithfully for the Holy Spirit, we can trust God to guide us each day.
❤️ We are thankful for another wonderful morning of learning, fellowship, and growing in God’s Word together at SOUL!
