PSALM 100 IS OUR SCRIPTURE PASSAGE OF FOCUS FOR THIS CHALLENGE.

A PSALM OF THANKSGIVING

SHOUT JOYFULLY TO THE LORD, ALL THE EARTH. SERVE THE LORD WITH GLADNESS; COME BEFORE HIM WITH JOYFUL SINGING. KNOW THAT THE LORD HIMSELF IS GOD; IT IS HE WHO HAS MADE US, AND NOT WE OURSELVES; WE ARE HIS PEOPLE AND THE SHEEP OF HIS PASTURE. ENTER HIS GATES WITH THANKSGIVING AND HIS COURTS WITH PRAISE. GIVE THANKS TO HIM, BLESS HIS NAME. FOR THE LORD IS GOOD; HIS MERCY IS EVERLASTING AND HIS TRUTH ENDURES TO ALL GENERATIONS.
PSALM 100:1-5

All funds raised will be used to further the ministries at New Salem Baptist Church and the Baptist Collegiate Ministries Gordon College chapter with the purpose of reaching others to share the soul saving and life changing Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Matthew 28:16-20
