Welcome to worship in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

This Morning is the closing program for VBS. Pastor Cary will close with a sermon, Knowing God, that summarizes what the kids learned through the week.  The VBS theme is called the “Jungle Safari” and it’s a fun way of knowing the nature of God as He is our creator, our provider, our protector, our savior, and our king.

Next Week, Bill brings us the message Myths of Christian Education. The Seventh-day Adventist Church operates the 2nd largest private school system in the world. Our offering and part of our tithe money goes to support Christian Education, so this a topic for all of us. If you talk to enough people, you’ll hear a lot of different opinions about Christian Education not all of which are accurate.

VBS Thanks! There are so many people who help with VBS. From the kitchen to the classrooms, to the crafts, to the registration table, to the music, to the people who help decorate, to the stories and the games; there are just too many names to list them all. But everyone works so hard and puts so much into making sure all the children learn about Jesus. That’s awesome!

The message on August 9th is “Who Are We #10: Spiritual Gifts.” We believe that God’s people are to be led by the Holy Spirit.  When we are spirit led, God will give us special gifts to help us function in the manner in which God created us.  We also believe in the spirit of prophecy as an important gift for our understanding of end time events, and our church was blessed with the ministry of Ellen White as someone with that gift.

Flowers today are from the Gonzalez family for Kelly’s birthday.

Brothers and sisters in Christ, we come together as family to worship God and receive his Word. Welcome one another in Jesus’ name.

This Morning will be the ninth installment of our “Who Are We” series, and the sermon will be Church. We believe God’s church is designed for his children to bond together as one to form the body of Christ. The church has an essential role in fulfilling God’s plan for this world, and it is vital for all of us to belong as we grow in Christ and connect with God’s mission for our lives.

Welcome to worship in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in whom we have true freedom.

This Morning the message is Who Are We # 8: Salvation. As we celebrate the 4th of July, we are blessed to live in a country that cherishes the freedom of its citizens.  On this day, we will commemorate our freedoms, but we will also present our belief that it is God’s nature for all of his children to be free. God gives us the freedom to love him, and to listen to his ways. However, God’s greatest gift of freedom is the freedom from sin.

Next Week is our Communion service. On this special Sabbath, we will partake of the Lord’s supper which is remembering Jesus’s sacrifice as he gave his body and blood for us.  We also will follow Jesus’s example of foot washing as an act of service to our brothers and
sisters.
