Weekly Bulletin: 2023-07-05
Join us THIS Sunday, July 9 as we assemble as the people of God to rejoice in the Word of God. During the 10 AM service, Lord willing, I will be bringing a message from 1 Samuel 25 and the story of David’s interactions with Nabal and Abigail, and yes, even that story is one that can point us to Jesus. During the 6 PM gathering, we will be hosting a special guest speaker, Eric Attinger, as he comes to share a talk about how to think biblically about time and aliens. You won’t want to miss that!
Stay well and stay blessed, church, and I can’t wait to worship with you on Sunday!
Blessings 🙏 Pastor Brad
Note: There will be a congregational business immediately following the morning worship service this Sunday.
