theme: "ON US A LIGHT HAS DAWNED!"
Matthew 4:12-23 (NIV)
12 When Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, he
returned to Galilee. 13 Leaving Nazareth, he went and
lived in Capernaum, which was by the lake in the area of
Zebulun and Naphtali— 14 to fulfill what was said
through the prophet Isaiah: 15 “Land of Zebulun and land
of Naphtali, the way to the sea, along the Jordan,
Galilee of the Gentiles— 16 the people living in
darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the
land of the shadow of death a light has dawned.” 17 From
that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the
kingdom of heaven is near.” 18 As Jesus was walking
beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon
called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a
net into the lake, for they were fishermen. 19 “Come,
follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of
men.” 20 At once they left their nets and followed him.
21 Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James
son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat
with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus
called them, 22 and immediately they left the boat and
their father and followed him. 23 Jesus went throughout
Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the
good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and
sickness among the people.
