Weekly Bulletin: 2023-08-02
I hope you will worship with us THIS Sunday, August 6 at 10 AM as we assemble at Mountain View Bible Camp for our annual church fall picnic! This is one of my favorite Sundays of the year as our church family gets to spend a day in worship, fellowship, and play. All church activities will take place at the campground this week, so be sure to meet us there. (Address: 99 Mt View Ln, Danville, PA 17821.) The worship will begin around 10 o’clock with a time of food and fellowship to follow. The pool will open up around 2 o’clock, so bring appropriate swimwear if you’re interested in that.
I’m also happy to announce that we’ll be continuing what’s seemingly becoming a tradition at the picnic by having a baptismal service in the afternoon, too! If you or someone you know has been praying about getting baptized or is interested in getting baptized, please contact me right away. I would love to include them in this service 🙌
Don’t miss out on this special Sunday of worship and fellowship and play with your church family! See you Sunday!
Blessings 🙏 Pastor Brad

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who made last week’s VBS possible! There were so many helping hands that went into a week of fun, adventure, and faith. It was so fulfilling to see the kids enjoying themselves while being taught about the most important truths in all of life, and I’m thrilled to say that we saw some decisions for the Lord last week. We can only pray that we are able to continue impacting the next generation with the good news of Jesus Christ. Click the link below to check out some of the sights and sounds from last week.
