Worship Service
This week, we will be learning about Mary, Martha's sister, and we will take the Lord's Supper. Our readings will come from John 12 and Ruth 1:16.
Pot Luck Lunch
Why is it that sharing a meal with family so richly transcends simply meeting our dietary needs? There is something about gathering together to partake of food made by the hands of people who love us to show us in a very basic and primal way that He is among us. Sharing a meal with family is ordinary in a very extraordinary way. As we intentionally focus in October on seeing God in the ordinary acts of our lives, it seemed important to share a meal among our church family. Therefore, on Sunday, October 4, immediately following the 11:00am service, we will share a traditional potluck lunch in the gym. Please come and enjoy a special time of fellowship!
Sharing Scripture Together
In a moment of sincerity and candor, the Psalmist confesses, "I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you." This October, we will join with the Psalmist in practicing the ancient spiritual discipline of Scripture memory, using as our text Psalm 139:7-10. By committing to gather those sacred words in our heads and hearts, we invite the Scriptures and Spirit into our inner life for an ongoing conversation throughout the day.
