What if someone loved you more than anyone could ever love you no matter what you did? Would you care about what that person said and listen to their advice?

Letting Go
Hosea marries a prostitute to demonstrate God’s love for His unfaithful people. When is a time you’ve done something to lose a love or lessen someone’s affection for you? How did that make you feel? Have you ever wronged God?

Calling Back
Hosea brings his wife back after she leaves him, and God is unwilling to leave Israel alone. How have you seen God’s forgiveness in your life?

Staying Faithful
At the end of Hosea, the people of Israel pronounce their commitment to be faithful to God. How can we live out faithful love to God?

Watoto Children's Choir Coming to iConnect Services June 18!
We are excited to welcome the Watoto Children's Choir to lead us in a vibrant worship experience! Please join us as we experience God's love through these beautiful children from Uganda, East Africa.
Watoto Children’s Choir’s newest production, Signs & Wonders, celebrates the joy of salvation. The choir, whose members are orphans and other vulnerable children, will present new worship music from Watoto Church in Uganda and invite audiences to experience an encounter with God.
“Behold, I and the children whom the Lord has given me are for signs and wonders in Israel from the Lord of hosts,who dwells on Mount Zion.”Isaiah 8:18 NASB
Through the power of their testimonies the children will share stories of how their lives have been changed, and how they have been called into a life of purpose to transform their communities. Each story will declare the miracle of transformation – from darkness to light; from despair to hope; from loss to purpose; from fear to faith.
“I am excited to be a part of Signs & Wonders. I know that I am a wonder, because I am chosen by God as His child,” exclaims Esther Kahangi (8). Esther is one of the children traveling with the choir. Baby Watoto rescued her shortly after her birth. Born at a local hospital on the outskirts of Kampala, her mother abandoned her. Esther arrived at Baby Watoto as a premature baby and spent her first weeks in an incubator until she was well enough to move to a crib. Now she is a colorful little girl, with the most memorable smile and dance moves.
Watoto Children’s Choirs have traveled extensively since 1994, sharing a message of hope for Africa’s orphans and widows. To date, the choir has toured six continents and performed to enthralled audiences in schools, retirement homes, churches, parliaments, state houses and royal palaces.
Each child in the Watoto Children’s Choir has suffered the loss of one or both parents and now lives in a Watoto village. The experience of traveling in a choir helps the children to develop confidence and boldness, as well as broadening their worldview.
Accompanied by a team of adults, the choir presents Watoto’s vision and mission by sharing personal stories, music and dance. While on the road, the children act as advocates for the millions of other African children who have experienced the same heartbreaking pain and suffering as them.For more about the Watoto Ministries please visit the link below:
