Matt shared from Luke 4 in today's Celebration Service...
14Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news about him spread through the whole countryside. 15He taught in their synagogues, and everyone praised him.
16He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. 17The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written: 18"The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, 19to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor."
20Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him, 21and he began by saying to them, "Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing."

Matt & Heather Reigel, along with their 3 children, live and work in Rostock, Germany. Rostock is located in northeast Germany, north of Berlin. This area was formerly the country of East Germany. They will be working on Church planting and development. God is calling them to disciple new Christians and to teach leadership to maturing Christians. This is a task that God has shaped and molded the Reigels for.
