Spiritual Gifts - August 23, 2026

📖 Scriptures: Romans 12:1-8

🎙 Message: Spiritual Gifts – Rev. Romy Velasco

In the twelfth chapter of Romans, the Apostle Paul issues a powerful call for believers to offer their bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God. He reminds us that true worship goes beyond our song and prayer; it encompasses how we surrender our daily lives to God's transformational renewal rather than conforming to the patterns of this world.

Rev. Romy Velasco explores how this spiritual transformation changes the way we view ourselves and one another. Paul uses the picture of a human body to show that while we are many members, we form one unified body in Christ. Each person has been given distinct spiritual gifts—whether serving, teaching, encouraging, giving, leading, or showing mercy—designed to work together in harmony.

This message invites us to discover and activate the gifts God has entrusted to us. When we use our unique abilities in humility and love, we build up the congregation and extend Christ’s hands and feet to the surrounding community.

We warmly invite you to join us this Sunday as we learn and grow together. Whether you are looking for a community to belong to or searching for your spiritual purpose, our doors are open to you at Green Camp UMC.
