Weekly Bulletin: 2023-04-19
“The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary;
his understanding is unsearchable.
He gives power to the faint,
and to him who has no might he increases strength.
Even youths shall faint and be weary,
and young men shall fall exhausted;
but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint.”
(Isa. 40:28–31).
Be sure to join us for worship this Sunday, Apr. 23, at 10 AM as one of our elders, Matt Shively, brings a powerful word from the Lord looking at the “theology of the eagle.” Be refreshed and encouraged with church family and friends as the Word is opened and the Lord is exalted!
Also, don’t forget to stick around afterwards for another Roll ’n Bowl fellowship meal immediately after the morning service.
May the Lord bless you and keep you in his grace this week.
Blessings 🙏 Pastor Brad
