Matthew 13:24-43 (ESV)
The Parable of the Weeds
24 He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field,25 but while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds[a] among the wheat and went away. 26 So when the plants came up and bore grain, then the weeds appeared also. 27 And the servants[b] of the master of the house came and said to him, ‘Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have weeds?’ 28 He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ So the servants said to him, ‘Then do you want us to go and gather them?’ 29 But he said, ‘No, lest in gathering the weeds you root up the wheat along with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, “Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”

BE BOLD
Our congregation’s 150th anniversary brings with it a new era, defined by those which preceded it, and written in bold. We are unashamed of our faith, and willing to do whatever it takes to show our community the unconditional love of Jesus Christ. By 2020, St. John’s will have significantly more impact on our city by equipping our disciples to go out into the world with God’s love, whether that is through one of our many growing ministries, or in everyday life.
