Sunday School - Something for EVERYBODY! Adults meet in the Sanctuary, teens meet in Pastor Jeff's office, & children, nursery - 6th grade, meet in the Ed. Building. Join us for a great time of close fellowship & worship together in God's Word.
Worship Service - True worship consists of Revelation & Response:
Revelation - Flows from His Word, both from the weekly messages as well as our personal walk with God throughout the week.
Response - In honor & gratitude, let's bring the worship of our hearts & lives to lift each other up. As the local body of believers, lets live by faith in action, in all we think, do & say here today, giving God ALL the glory!
AWANA - 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm, Mondays, Ed. Bldg. Please invite ALL children to participate; aged Pre-K - 6th gr. For more info. contact Allan Tiemens or call the church office, 442-3610.
Men's Prayer & Fellowship - Men, what a privilege to lead! "Call to Me & I will answer you, I will tell you great & mighty things, which you do not know." Jer. 33:3
Prayer / Bible Study - Together, come & worship; "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, & do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him,
& He will make your paths straight." Prov. 3:5-6

Let's Pray for Believers Everywhere
Voice of the Martyrs -
"Believe me! What you see happening before your eyes is no punishment; it will be over quickly, & doesn't take away life, but gives it. O happy souls who pass through this temporary fire to ascend into heaven to God, &, in the end, be saved from the fire that burns forever."

~ Statement ~
"Our giving is for God, not for the applause of other people. Motive guides how much we give as surely as it guides how we give. How God feels about our giving should be our primary concern."
