SUMMARY:WMBC Worship Service & Announcements
DESCRIPTION:Sunday Worship Service & Announcements \nFebruary 2\, 10:30 am – 12:00 pm  \nWard Memorial Baptist Church\, 465 Kamloops St. Vancouver\, BC V5K 3V2 \n“My House will be called A House of Prayer For all Nations” Isaiah 56:7 ~ Mark 11:17 \nChurch Office                                              604 255-3949 \nSnr. Pastor Jusuf Wijaya                            604 724-1158 \nYouth Pastor: Jeremy Kwan                      613-316-8975 \nChurch Moderator: Chris Lim                    604-722-1800  \nG&I Shining Stars Youth Society               604 307-9237 \nOpening Prayer/Welcome/Worship/Praise: Worship Team \nScripture Reading: Matthew 13:1-23  \n1 That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake. 2 Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat in it\, while all the people stood on the shore. 3 Then he told them many things in parables\, saying: “A farmer went out to sow his seed. 4 As he was scattering the seed\, some fell along the path\, and the birds came and ate it up. 5 Some fell on rocky places\, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly\, because the soil was shallow. 6 But when the sun came up\, the plants were scorched\, and they withered because they had no root. 7 Other seed fell among thorns\, which grew up and choked the plants. 8 Still other seed fell on good soil\, where it produced a crop—a hundred\, sixty or thirty times what was sown. 9 Whoever has ears\, let them hear.” \n10 The disciples came to him and asked\, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?” \n11 He replied\, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you\, but not to them. 12 Whoever has will be given more\, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have\, even what they have will be taken from them. 13 This is why I speak to them in parables: \n“Though seeing\, they do not see;\nthough hearing\, they do not hear or understand. \n14 In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah: \n“‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding;\nyou will be ever seeing but never perceiving.\n15 For this people’s heart has become calloused;\nthey hardly hear with their ears\,\nand they have closed their eyes.\nOtherwise they might see with their eyes\,\nhear with their ears\,\nunderstand with their hearts\nand turn\, and I would heal them.’[a] \n16 But blessed are your eyes because they see\, and your ears because they hear. 17 For truly I tell you\, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it\, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it. \n18 “Listen then to what the parable of the sower means: 19 When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it\, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in their heart. This is the seed sown along the path. 20 The seed falling on rocky ground refers to someone who hears the word and at once receives it with joy. 21 But since they have no root\, they last only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word\, they quickly fall away. 22 The seed falling among the thorns refers to someone who hears the word\, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word\, making it unfruitful. 23 But the seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop\, yielding a hundred\, sixty or thirty times what was sown.” \nPraise and Worship Contd. \nGod’s Tithes Our Offering: E-transfer to: wardoffering@gmail.com; questions\, contact Vanessa @ +1 (778) 837-7408\, or vness.lal@gmail.com \nCan also drop off in mail slot at church or send by mail. \nCommunion \nMessage: “Parable of the Sower” by Pastor Gun Ajan  \nBenediction \nAnnouncements \nBaptism: Speak with Pastor Jusuf if you are interested in baptism. \nWMBC is… \n(Vision Statement) “Making God known by sharing the Love of Christ.” \n(Mission Statement) “Transformation”- Romans 12:2 (Vision Statement) \n– All are welcome at WMBC \nPrayer Sessions: Time –Wednesday: 7:00-8:30 p.m.; Thursday: 7:00 p.m.; Sundays: 9:45 a.m. \nLIVE STREAMING OF WMBC SERVICES WILL BE ON SUNDAYS @ 10:30 A.M. https://wmbaptistchurch.ca In-person church services commence at 10:30 A.M.  Invite families and friends. \nPrayer Care / Concerns: Church Ministries; Church Unity and Growth; Missionaries; Fire Impacted areas and persons; Community; Israel / Palestine\, Haiti\, Afghanistan\,  Sudan\, Russia and Ukraine; Turkey / Syria ; South Korea\, US\, Caribbean Islands and other hurricane impacted areas; Families’ displacement in countries due to wars\, natural or man-made disasters\, etc.; Peace/Safety Officers;  Shelters\, Unhoused;  Peace and Harmony across Canada / USA\, Reconciliation; Indigenous National Truth and Reconciliation; 2025 Shining Stars After- school programs\, Parents\, Staff and Volunteers; Celebration Zone; Korean Fellowship; Seniors Enrichment Time (SET)\, Young Adults; Brothers and sisters who are ill. \nMission Focus:\nLong Term Missions:\nTim and Kellie Hutton-Bolivia; Bill and Janice Dyck-Bolivia \nPaul & Sharyn Branson-Dominican Republic\nJanzens-Brazil \nLocal Mission Outreach \n-Shining Stars after- school –contact Yvonne M.

Then Peter remembered the word the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows today\, you will disown me three times.” 62 And he went outside and wept bitterly. \nThe Guards Mock Jesus\n63 The men who were guarding Jesus began mocking and beating him. 64 They blindfolded him and demanded\, “Prophesy!

The first said unto him\, I have bought a piece of ground\, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused. \n19 And another said\, I have bought five yoke of oxen\, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused. \n20 And another said\, I have married a wife\, and therefore I cannot come. \n21 So that servant came\, and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant\, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city\, and bring in hither the poor\, and the maimed\, and the halt\, and the blind. \n22 And the servant said\, Lord\, it is done as thou hast commanded\, and yet there is room. \n23 And the lord said unto the servant\, Go out into the highways and hedges\, and compel them to come in\, that my house may be filled. \n24 For I say unto you\, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper. \n25 And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned\, and said unto them\, \n26 If any man come to me\, and hate not his father\, and mother\, and wife\, and children\, and brethren\, and sisters\, yea\, and his own life also\, he cannot be my disciple. \n27 And whosoever doth not bear his cross\, and come after me\, cannot be my disciple. \n28 For which of you\, intending to build a tower\, sitteth not down first\, and counteth the cost\, whether he have sufficient to finish it? \n29 Lest haply\, after he hath laid the foundation\, and is not able to finish it\, all that behold it begin to mock him\, \n30 Saying\, This man began to build\, and was not able to finish. \n31 Or what king\, going to make war against another king\, sitteth not down first\, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand? \n32 Or else\, while the other is yet a great way off\, he sendeth an ambassage\, and desireth conditions of peace. \n33 So likewise\, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath\, he cannot be my disciple. \n34 Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour\, wherewith shall it be seasoned? \n35 It is neither fit for the land\, nor yet for the dunghill; but men cast it out.

I will be quick to testify against sorcerers\, adulterers and perjurers\, against those who defraud laborers of their wages\, who oppress the widows and the fatherless\, and deprive the foreigners among you of justice\, but do not fear me\,” says the Lord Almighty. \nPraise and Worship Contd. \nGod’s Tithes Our Offering: E-transfer to: wardoffering@gmail.com; questions\, contact Vanessa @ +1 (778) 837-7408\, or vness.lal@gmail.com \nCan also drop off in mail slot at church or send by mail. \nMessage: “Questioning God’s judgment” by Pastor Jusuf Wijaya \nCommunion \nBenediction \nEvening Service: No Evening Service! \nAnnouncements \nBaptism: Speak with Pastor Jusuf if you are interested in baptism. \nWMBC is… \n(Vision Statement) “Making God known by sharing the Love of Christ.” \n(Mission Statement) “Transformation”- Romans 12:2 (Vision Statement) \n– All are welcome at WMBC \nPrayer Sessions: Time –Wednesday: 7:00-8:30 p.m.; Thursday: 7:00 p.m.; Sundays: 9:45 a.m. \nLIVE STREAMING OF WMBC SERVICES WILL BE ON SUNDAYS @ 10:30 A.M. https://wmbaptistchurch.ca In-person church services commence at 10:30 A.M.              Invite families and friends. \nCelebration Zone for Children/ Youth on-site- Sundays @10:30 a.m. \nESL Classes: Tuesdays and Thursdays\, 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. in the downstairs Fellowship Hall.

SUMMARY:Sunday Worship
DESCRIPTION:WARD  MEMORIAL BAPTIST CHRUCH\n“My House will be called A House of Prayer For all Nations”  Isaiah 56:7 ~ Mark 11:17 \nMISSION:  “Making God known by sharing the Love of Christ.” \nVISION: “Transformation”- Romans 12:2  \nOrder of Service: 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.\n\n\n\nOpening Prayer/Worship: Worship Team\n\n\nScripture Reading: Malachi 2:10-16 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10 Do we not all have one Father[a]? Did not one God create us? Why do we profane the covenant of our ancestors by being unfaithful to one another? \n11 Judah has been unfaithful. A detestable thing has been committed in Israel and in Jerusalem: Judah has desecrated the sanctuary the Lord loves by marrying women who worship a foreign god. 12 As for the man who does this\, whoever he may be\, may the Lord remove him from the tents of Jacob[b]—even though he brings an offering to the Lord Almighty. \n13 Another thing you do: You flood the Lord’s altar with tears. You weep and wail because he no longer looks with favor on your offerings or accepts them with pleasure from your hands. 14 You ask\, “Why?” It is because the Lord is the witness between you and the wife of your youth. You have been unfaithful to her\, though she is your partner\, the wife of your marriage covenant. \n15 Has not the one God made you? You belong to him in body and spirit. And what does the one God seek? Godly offspring.[c] So be on your guard\, and do not be unfaithful to the wife of your youth. \n16 “The man who hates and divorces his wife\,” says the Lord\, the God of Israel\, “does violence to the one he should protect\,”[d] says the Lord Almighty. \nSo be on your guard\, and do not be unfaithful. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPraise and Worship: contd..\n\n\nSermon: Ps.Jeremy Kwan on “Malachi 2:10-16”\n\n\nBenediction\n\n\n\nAnnouncements\n  \nBaptism: Speak with Pastor Jusuf if you are interested in baptism. \nWMBC is… \n(Vision Statement) “Making God known by sharing the Love of Christ.” \n(Mission Statement) “Transformation”- Romans 12:2 (Vision Statement) \n– All are welcome at WMBC \nPrayer Sessions: Time –Wednesday: 7:00-8:30 p.m.; Thursday: 7:00 p.m.; Sundays: 9:45 a.m. \nLIVE STREAMING OF WMBC SERVICES WILL BE ON SUNDAYS @ 10:30 A.M. https://wmbaptistchurch.ca In-person church services commence at 10:30 A.M.

Amid our waiting\, though\, we can still say—with joy and excitement—that MFV 2025 is happening! Jesus has been speaking clearly and has been leading us to the theme He wants for the conference. \nThe theme for Mission Fest Vancouver 2025 is “I WILL”. \nThrough the summer\, I (James) have heard that Jesus wants to focus our hearts on all the areas of life in which He wondrously and unwaveringly declares\, “I will.” \na few examples: \nMatthew 11:28  “Come to me\, all who labour and are heavy laden\, and I will give you rest.” \nMatthew 16:18  “I will build my church.” \nMatthew 4:19   “Follow me\, and I will make you fishers of men.” \nJohn 14:3   “I will come again and will take you to myself\, that where I am you may be also.” \nVenue still to be finalized. \nPrayer Care / Concerns: \nChurch Ministries; Church Unity and Growth; Missionaries; Fire Impacted areas and persons; Community; Israel / Palestine\, Haiti\, Afghanistan\,  Sudan\, Russia and Ukraine; Turkey / Syria ; South Korea\, Japan\, Caribbean Islands and other hurricane impacted areas; Families’ displacement in countries due to wars\, natural or man-made disasters\, etc.; Peace/Safety Officers;  Shelters\, Unhoused;  Peace and Harmony across Canada / USA\, Reconciliation; Indigenous National Truth and Reconciliation; 2024 Shining Stars After- school programs\, Parents\, Staff and Volunteers; Celebration Zone; Korean Fellowship; Seniors Enrichment Time (SET)\, Young Adults; Brothers and sisters who are ill. \nMission Focus:\nLong Term Missions:\nTim and Kellie Hutton-Bolivia \nPaul & Sharyn Branson-Dominican Republic\nJanzens-Brazil; Bill and Janice Dyck-Bolivia \nLocal Mission Outreach \n-Shining Stars after- school –contact Yvonne M.

Let the power of your resurrection engulf our hearts\, bodies\, and souls to intentionally live lives that reflect your truth and unconditional love. Convict our hearts today and let us practice daily the truths that have been handed down to us. \nMatthew 22:37-39: Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment.

Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete\, not lacking anything. \nPhilippians 4:6-7: “Do not be anxious about anything\, but in every situation\, by prayer and petition\, with thanksgiving\, present your requests to God. And the peace of God\, which transcends all understanding\, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” \nLet us pray for cessation of current wars and forgiveness to reign in all our hearts so that true peace can be experienced.

When you sacrifice lame or diseased animals\, is that not wrong? Try offering them to your governor! Would he be pleased with you?

In every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to me\, because my name will be great among the nations\,” says the Lord Almighty. \n12 “But you profane it by saying\, ‘The Lord’s table is defiled\,’ and\, ‘Its food is contemptible.’ 13 And you say\, ‘What a burden!’ and you sniff at it contemptuously\,” says the Lord Almighty. \n“When you bring injured\, lame or diseased animals and offer them as sacrifices\, should I accept them from your hands?” says the Lord. 14 “Cursed is the cheat who has an acceptable male in his flock and vows to give it\, but then sacrifices a blemished animal to the Lord.

Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? 25 Thanks be to God\, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! \nSo then\, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law\, but in my sinful nature[a] a slave to the law of sin. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPraise and Worship: contd..\n\n\nSermon: Bro.

SUMMARY:Sunday Worship Service
DESCRIPTION:WARD  MEMORIAL BAPTIST CHRUCH\n“My House will be called A House of Prayer For all Nations”  Isaiah 56:7 ~ Mark 11:17 \nMISSION:  “Making God known by sharing the Love of Christ.” \nVISION: “Transformation”- Romans 12:2  \nOrder of Service: 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.\n\n\n\nOpening Prayer/Worship: Worship Team\n\n\nScripture Reading: Luke 15: 1-31 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Parable of the Lost Sheep\n15 Now the tax collectors and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus. 2 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered\, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.” \n3 Then Jesus told them this parable: 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it\, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says\, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. \nThe Parable of the Lost Coin\n8 “Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins[a] and loses one. Doesn’t she light a lamp\, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she finds it\, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says\, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.’ 10 In the same way\, I tell you\, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” \nThe Parable of the Lost Son\n11 Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger one said to his father\, ‘Father\, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them. \n13 “Not long after that\, the younger son got together all he had\, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. 14 After he had spent everything\, there was a severe famine in that whole country\, and he began to be in need. 15 So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country\, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs. 16 He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating\, but no one gave him anything. \n17 “When he came to his senses\, he said\, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have food to spare\, and here I am starving to death! 18 I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father\, I have sinned against heaven and against you. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants.’ 20 So he got up and went to his father. \n“But while he was still a long way off\, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son\, threw his arms around him and kissed him. \n21 “The son said to him\, ‘Father\, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ \n22 “But the father said to his servants\, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. 24 For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ So they began to celebrate. \n25 “Meanwhile\, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house\, he heard music and dancing. 26 So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. 27 ‘Your brother has come\,’ he replied\, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’ \n28 “The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. 29 But he answered his father\, ‘Look! All these years I’ve been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. 30 But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home\, you kill the fattened calf for him!’ \n31 “‘My son\,’ the father said\, ‘you are always with me\, and everything I have is yours. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPraise and Worship: contd..\n\n\nSermon: Ps.Jusuf Wijaya on “What is the Joy of discipleship?”\n\n\nBenediction\n\n\n\nAnnouncements\nBaptism: Speak with Pastor Jusuf if you are interested in baptism. \nPrayer Sessions: Time –Wednesday: 7:00-8:30 p.m.; Thursday: 7:00 p.m.; Sundays: 9:45 a.m. \nLIVE STREAMING OF WMBC SERVICES WILL BE ON SUNDAYS @ 10:30 A.M. https://wmbaptistchurch.ca In-person church services commence at 10:30 A.M.
