Chris Wall • Philippians 1:1-11
Our mission as a church is To know God and help people follow Christ here, there, and everywhere. This mission is grounded in the core value of living every day as AMBASSADORS for Christ. The Ambassador call moves our church to represent Christ in every circle of our lives. We represent Christ to our families, neighbors and co-workers. We represent Christ as we engage in our hobbies, sports teams, and our day-to-day shopping. And of course, we represent Christ to the strangers who cross our path. God’s people representing Christ is the historic plan for the spread of the gospel. It is the one on one, life on life, day by day gospel adventure set apart for Christians in every generation. By the time Paul wrote the letter to the church at Philippi, it was established and growing. The beginning of this letter is filled with a great deal of gratitude and joy because this entire church partners in the gospel. This is the essence of being an Ambassador for Christ. Followers of Jesus represent Christ until the race is over or the world comes to its proper end. As we come back into a newly remodeled worship center, it is timely for our church to flesh out what it means to live as Ambassadors representing Christ in the very place God planted each one of us.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
