News & Updates: Week of 2021-05-24
Join us on Sundays for worship at 10am and 6pm. We love gathering around God’s Word and fellowshipping with God’s people, and we’d love for you to be a part of that! I pray you will be able to be there with us this coming weekend 🙌
Join us for our Sunday School hour!
We have Sunday School every week beginning at 9am. There are classes for the adults, teens, and younger children, as well. Don’t miss out on some wonderful opportunities to grow in grace with your church family.
Children’s Church & Nursery are available during the morning service.
(The Nursery is also available during the evening service.)
Events & Announcements
Worship team leaders and planners, please plan on meeting TOMORROW, May 25, at 7pm to review the worship plans for the next month. Thank you!
There will be NO EVENING SERVICE on Sunday, May 30 due to it being Memorial Day weekend. Enjoy the extra time with your family and friends!
The next board meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, June 1, at 7pm.
Note: There will be an elders meeting at 6pm just prior. Thank you.
I pray you will be with us on Sunday, June 6 as we’ll be dedicating the entire morning service to baptism and communion! These two ordinances, we believe, are the institutions established by Christ during his ministry in the New Testament which are indicative of a faithful New Testament church. It’s fitting, then, that we’d commemorate both of them in a single service!
If you’ve made a proclamation of faith and would like to take that next step in your journey of faith by publicly declaring your allegiance to Jesus, please come see either Pastor Nathan or myself. We’d love to be able to include you in this special service.
Summer camp at WOL is scheduled for June 27—July 2! Tickets are still available for students leaving 7th grade through graduating 12th grade. The cost is $240. To reserve your spot, please submit a $50 deposit to either Pastor Nathan or Christa Kersey.
Vacation Bible School 2021 is on the calendar for August 8—13! We’re in need of volunteers, so stop by the VBS table in the church foyer to sign up and/or see Gwennie Francis.
This year’s church picnic is scheduled for Sunday, August 15, at Mountain View Bible Camp. I pray you’ll make plans to attend this special day with your church family!
Ladies, please mark your calendars for September 24–26 for this year’s Ladies Retreat.
We are currently praying about plans to visit Poland THIS summer, July 8–20. Please lift up this team and this opportunity in prayer as we seek to bring the gospel to the nations! 🙏
