Vacation Bible School is less than six weeks away! Nightly from 5-8 p.m., VBS will take place Sunday, July 21 through Thursday, July 25. We hope your kids will join us and that you will consider volunteering.

Supper (for all interested kids and volunteers) will be served each evening (Sunday through Thursday) at 5:00 with the VBS program beginning at 5:30. We will be done right at 8:00 each night, and we’ll finish off the week with a big VBS family celebration (10:40 a.m.) and lunch on Sunday, July 28.

VBS is for children who recently completed preschool through sixth grade, with nursery only being provided for the children of our volunteers.

For more information, please contact us. Check out the below video to learn more about this year’s theme – In the Wild.

Sunday morning, June 9, 2019, Robert and Haley were baptized at the beginning of our worship celebration. We pray their testimonies and baptisms (below) will encourage you to follow Jesus.

Our team of 16 is in the air as this is being typed, flying to Atlanta before catching their connecting flight to Guatemala. Please be in prayer for them as they go to serve the children of Casa De Mi Padre orphanage in Santa Cruz del Quiche, as well as proclaim the gospel in the surrounding community. May God receive all the glory!

On Sunday morning, May 26, 2019, Mark, Cade, Liam and Alaina publicly professed their faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord through believer’s baptism. Praise be to God!

Below is a video of the baptisms (preceded by an explanation of Christian baptism), as well as some pictures.

Before their baptisms yesterday morning, Mark, Cade, Liam, and Alaina shared their Christian testimonies. We pray their stories encourage you to trust and follow Jesus Christ.

We do not always do the best job of sharing pictures from our times together as a church family, as we are usually too busy enjoying the fellowship. Here are some recent shots, though, that illustrate the blessings of church as family.

This Saturday (May 4th) is our annual church work day. There is a lot of work that needs to be done, both inside and outside the church building. Whether you are a heavy lifter, a detailed cleaner, a good painter, a landscaping guru, a carpentry wizard, a helpful organizer, or a wise supervisor, we need your help. We have plenty of work for everyone who is willing to serve.

Beginning at 8 a.m., we will be working all morning and even some in the afternoon for those who are able and willing. Even if you can only help for a short time, please plan on joining us. If you have any questions or want more information, please contact us.

Thank you to the amazing church family members who continue to serve Christ by serving others inside and outside our church!

We want to invite you to join us Easter Sunday morning for family groups (9:30 – 10:30) and worship (10:40 – 11:40). During our worship service, Pastor Nick will begin a new sermon series from 1-3 John called Prove It.

A Christian’s life should be living proof of his or her relationship with God, and so Nick will challenge you throughout this series to consider the proof of your faith. Does your love for God prove itself in love for others? Does your relationship with God prove itself through obedience to His Word?

How can you be sure that you are a Christian? Nick typically encourages people to spend time reading and praying through 1 John when they ask that question. Thus, this should be a very helpful, practical and important series for all of us.

Below are the messages Nick hopes to preach in this series…

1 John 1:1-4 – “Proof of Jesus”

1 John 1:5 – 2:2 – “Proof of Light”

1 John 2:3-11 – “Proof of Salvation”

1 John 2:12-17 – “Proof of Priorities”

1 John 2:18-27 – “Proof of Truth”

1 John 2:28 – 3:10 – “Proof of Birth”

1 John 3:11-24 – “Proof of Love”

1 John 4:1-6 – “Proof of the Spirit”

1 John 4:7-21 – “Proof of God”

1 John 5:1-12 – “Proof of Faith”

1 John 5:13-21 – “Proof of Assurance”

2 John – “Proof from Truth”

3 John – “Proof from Reputation”

If you have any questions and/or want more information about our church or this sermon series, please contact us. Hope to see you on Wednesdays and Sundays!
