"God's Strategy for Global Impact" - International Sunday

In a powerful message about God's global strategy, Gary challenges us to reimagine missions by looking no further than our own backyard. Drawing from Acts 17:26-27, he reveals how God strategically places people from all nations in our communities as part of His divine plan for kingdom expansion. Through the compelling testimony of Prince, a Ghanaian scientist whose journey from farming villages to earning a doctorate exemplifies God's providential guidance, Gary illustrates how God orchestrates divine appointments for global impact. He emphasizes that mission work isn't just about crossing oceans – it's about crossing streets and building relationships with the diverse nations God has brought to our doorstep. With Worcester's rich tapestry of international communities and City United's own multicultural congregation, Gary presents a vision of the church as a preview of heaven's diverse gathering. He calls believers to shift from mere hospitality to true partnership in reaching the nations, challenging everyone to stop asking "why" in difficult seasons and instead ask "what is God preparing me for?" The urgent message is clear: God's mission field is here and now, and every believer's story can be used for His global purpose.
