Passage of the Day – December 19, 2010

Acts 14:23-28

²³When they had appointed elders for them in every church, having prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.

 ²⁴They passed through Pisidia and came into Pamphylia.

 ²⁵When they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia.

 ²⁶From there they sailed to Antioch, from which they had been commended to the grace of God for the work that they had accomplished.

 ²⁷When they had arrived and gathered the church together, they began to report all things that God had done with them and how He had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles.

 ²⁸And they spent a long time with the disciples.

It is important to treat visitors to your church well and to learn from returning missionaries about what God is doing in other areas of the world.
