The psalmist declares: “We are filled with the good things of your house, of your holy temple!” (Psalm 65:4, NIV). God is eager to share many good things with us today. Welcome!

This Morning 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 our Lord’s example of foot washing as an act of service to our brothers and sisters.

Next Week 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.

Vacation Bible School is coming!

VBS is July 21-25th. If you want to help let us know! We can all be praying that the program will be a positive impact in the lives of our children. There are sign up sheets in the foyer for food. Sign up early and sign up often! Thank you for your support!

We Have An App! Have you checked out our new app yet? You can access sermon audio and videos, read the newsletter, see pictures, read bulletin announcements each week and more.

Let us know how it works for you. As always, let us know if you have suggestions for anything that would be helpful to add to the app.

VBS Closing Program: July 26th 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.
