News & Updates: Week of 2021-05-31
I hope you’ll worship with us THIS Sunday, June 6 as we’ll be centering the entire morning service around the two institutions of the local church, baptism and communion! These two ordinances were established by Jesus Christ during his ministry in the New Testament and 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.
Don’t forget, we have evening worship, too! Join us Sundays at 6pm for more worship and fellowship around the Word of God. This week, we’ll be enjoying a hymn sing — so come ready to sing your favorite hymn.
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
