This Morning 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).
Next Week the message 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)
Teacher Dedication Sabbath: Today we will have a Teacher Dedication for our school teachers and Sabbath School teachers.
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 Sept. 1st is The Rest of Our Lives. As we celebrate Labor Day weekend, this Sabbath's message will be on how to truly have a rest that can only be given by God. "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God's rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his" (Hebrews 4: 9,10).
