August 3rd, 2013 – Sermon on “The Power of Unity” by Frank Camarillo

by Site Moderator Posted: Friday, 8/9/2013

Frank Camarillo’s sermon  on The Power of Unity was a call for the COG7 churches to unite and through uniting, accomplish great things. Frank is the COG7 representative  to the churches in the Galveston, Harris, Montgomery and perhaps the Walker county area and as a result visits a different church each week. It is from this perspective that he gave this sermon. When asked about what specifically we could accomplish, Frank named two areas after some discussion: Non English or Spanish speaking people groups in our area and cities that have concentrations of youth but no church presence such as Bryan / College Station.

Frank CamarilloFrank used the following scriptures: Deut. 34:1-4, Josh. 1:7-8,6:1-20, Ps. 133:1-3
