Photo Blog: Missions Sending Sundays To Peru & Boston, Guest Speaker Russell Moore

This past Sunday was a big one for the Sojourn Community, as you’ll see in these photos by Chuck Heeke (Midtown Campus) and Troy Harvey (East Campus).

Dr. Russell Moore honored us by delivering a sermon on the doctrine of adoption during the 9am and 11:15am services at Midtown.

Dr. Moore is a good friend, to me and to Sojourn. He’s also a gifted preacher, author, blogger, podcaster and the Dean of the School of Theology and Senior Vice President for Academic Administration at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.

You can listen to his sermon here or download it for free from the Sojourn Church iTunes podcast.

Then at our East Campus, Pastor Brian Howard led a special Sending ceremony and prayer.

We sent members Steven and Kattie Peercy to Peru.

They’ll be living as missionaries in Lima, Peru. Keep them in your thoughts and prayer.

Back at Midtown in the 5pm service, Pastor Brian led the Sending of another Sojourn couple, Matt and Sara Galyon.

I have treasured the Galyon’s gifts in our church staff — Matt as an intern and Sara as a member as our office manager.

They’ll be moving to Boston, where they will be part of a church planting effort. In your prayers this week, give thanks to God for the Galyon’s, the Peercy’s and Dr. Moore, for being willing servants of Christ in Louisville and beyond.
