Worship (10:30 AM Contemporary) “Before I Go”

Text: John 17:1-19 When people are facing death, they speak of the things that matter the most to them.  It was no different for Jesus, who prayed for us: for our unity and for our protection.  We are all under the care of one who continues to look out for us, even when he is no longer in this world.
