March 2024 Lifeline

Dear Church Family, Easter will be the last Sunday of March, on the 31st. What a glorious day this will be! We will have a special fellowship in every Life Group. For many years, we have had biscuits on Easter Sunday. There’s a great story in the Old Testament that has led us to the special way we fellowship together on Easter Sunday. On Easter, we’re going to have one added feature – we will do a Good Friday service…

Thank the Lord for the wonderful groundbreaking we had last Sunday! This has been a tremendous project that we have worked on now for well over a year.

Dear Church Family,   Happy New Year! 2024 gives us new opportunities to serve our Lord and to know Him even more closely.

Merry Christmas! I can’t believe it’s already December! What a joy it is for us to worship our Lord at this Advent Christian season! We anticipate Christmas Day, the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. In the same way that the Old Testament followers of God anticipated the coming of the Messiah, we too as believers in Jesus at Christmas time anticipate the coming of Christmas Day and the advent of the Lord Jesus Christ. We are going to study Surprises in the Lineage of Jesus. You will be…

Dear Church Family, There’s a little bit of change in the air with the temperatures. This means we’re getting closer and closer to cold weather. This is the time of harvest. This is the time we celebrate all that the Lord has done for us. It’s Thanksgiving! I certainly am thankful for you and for our church family. The unity and blessing that God is giving us is supernatural. We’re thankful for that. Our Harvest Festival Banquet is scheduled for…

August 2023 Lifeline

We have been enjoying our Bible studies in the book of Genesis. Our theme is In the Beginning. The first 11 chapters of Genesis contain so much material that is foundational to our relationship with the Lord. From chapters 12 and following the foundation of God’s hand upon His people is found. What a joy it’s going to be to dig through these incredible passages of scripture. We enjoyed a fantastic Life Group Family Fellowship this past Sunday. As a…

This month we will have an opportunity to hear from our Entryway Enhancement Committee. As you know our committee has been working for nearly two years to make a recommendation about how to provide our church family with a beautiful new entrance with restroom facilities and all that we need as our people and guests from our community…
