The Kingdom of God is present where faith in Jesus Christ
is shared, where healing is given to the sick, where food
is given to the hungry, where light is given to the blind,
and where liberty is given to the captive and oppressed.

death and gives assurance of life after death. And we look
forward to His coming again in all fullness and glory to
make all creation new and to gather all the faithful under
God’s Kingdom. AMEN
