The Public Health Christian Fellowship at JHSPH

Dear Public Health Christian Fellowship, David writes in Psalm 145:13:  Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures throughout all generations. The LORD is faithful in all his words and kind in all his works.  Dear brothers and sisters, praying for you today to continue putting your trust in the One True and Perfect King of Kings, whose rule and reign is forevermore, who keeps his promises and works out all things for our good and his glory. As you go about your work, your studies, your research, your events, rest on Him who prepares in advance good work for you to do. Tomorrow,  join PHCF in Room W2033 at 12:15pm for a Flourishing in Grad School Bible study on  Daniel 1:1-21. Bring your own lunch :) Heads up on things-in-the-works:  1) Hopkins interministry worship night and 2) Baltimore City-wide health professionals fellowship. If interested in helping organize either/both of these, please contact  jhsph.phcf@gmail.com ...

Tomorrow, join PHCF for lunch! 12:15-1:15 in W2033  (note: back to the classroom we were in during summer and first term!) to reconnect, share, ...

So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light.  (Rom 13:12) Dear ones, praying in the midst of much to-do, that you take heart knowing that  salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed  (Rom 13:11b) and that God - our strength, our joy, our giver of life - is with you always.
