WELCOME TO WESTHEIGHTS: LOVING ONE ANOTHER

Message by Josh Mutter - September 15, 2024

• Our Mission: To help people find and follow Jesus
• Our Vision: A vibrant community of followers of Jesus that serves our neighbours by meeting needs and showing love

BIG IDEA:  We want to be in  relationships with one another.

John 15:12-17 NIV  My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you. This is my command: Love each other.

John 13:35 NIV  ...everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.
