May 16, 2015

Welcome to worship and Christian fellowship! Please greet one another in Christ's name.

This Morning the message is Walking in Love. In Ephesians 5:2, Paul calls us to walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.   Do you walk with love for people, or is it a struggle?  Hopefully, we can see through this study how to understand God's immense love for us, and that love propels us to treat others as God has treated us.

Next Week the message is Armor of God. In the final sermon in our Alive in Christ series, we are reminded that we live in a spiritual warfare, and we desperately need God's protection.   We are urged by Paul to seek God's protection daily as he writes in Ephesians 6:13, "Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground."

Graduates Needed! If you know someone in our church family who is graduating from Kindergarten, 8th grade, High School, or College - please let us know. We'd love to recognize them and celebrate with them. Email us at DowneyChurch@gmail.com or call the office at 562.869.6013.


Celebration Luncheon: Please sign up to bring some Italian food for our Celebration Luncheon on May 30th. Invite a friend or two to join us!

May 30th is Celebration Sabbath. This special Sabbath celebrates the completion of our Alive in Christ small group series. At this time, each group shares their God stories that came from their six weeks of studying the book of Ephesians.

Celebration Sabbath. May 30th our small groups will be sharing what we've learned during this series.
