The Grove News - 06/22/2006

 

If you are new to The Grove, we are glad that you joined us and hope you felt welcome among us!  We are a group of like-minded friends from different sound Christian churches around Montgomery that share life together.  Our prayer is that we will glorify God, be mission oriented, and grow together in His image as we hang out, attend our local churches, and keep on meeting on Tuesday nights.  Feel free to contact any of the people listed below for additional information regarding The Grove or check us out online at www.groveontheweb.blogspot.com.

"What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds?  Can such faith save him?  Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food.  If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it?  In the same way, faith  by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead."  James 2:14-17
