August 15, 2015

Welcome to this time set aside for worship and Christian fellowship. We need this break from the busyness of the world -- even in summer. Pause and relax in the arms of Jesus.

This Morning the message is Flooding with Joy. Do you remember singing the song, I got joy like a fountain? God wants us to have that joy as John writes, "Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them." (John 7:38)


Next Week the message is Jesus the Rabbi.  For this Sabbath, we are having a teacher's dedication and we are reminded that Jesus is our ultimate teacher.  In the feeding of the five thousand, we see Jesus' motivation for teaching us as Mark writes, "When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began teaching them many things" (Mark 6:34).

Teacher Dedication Sabbath: On Aug. 22nd we will have a Teacher Dedication for our school teachers and Sabbath School teachers. If you're a teacher, please plan on joining us.


Saturday Bible Studies: We are on a short break from our Saturday afternoon Bible studies. Watch for them to start up again soon.

Invite your friends and family to our annual Parking Lot Party on Saturday, August 29th. The theme this year is a Fiesta. Some come on out, bring a bit of food to share, some chairs to sit in and join us for the evening!


The message on August 29th is Living Waters. Many Christian are living as if they are spiritually dehydrated, and our final sermon of the Drought Resistant Christ will follow the words of Jesus when he said, "whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life" (John 4:14)

Weekly Bible Passage: We complete list of Bible texts are listed on our website. Check out the graphic version of the memory verses on Facebook or in our mobile app.
