God-sized Questions
"The whole world is changing, is there anything I can count on?"
_______________>
James 1:17
"Every
good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of
the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows."
_______________>
Life
is full of ups and downs -- emotionally, physically, mentally,
financially. There's nothing certain in life except change. Change
is certain.
Listen
to how one author puts it:
"For
Millenia upon Millenia change was slow, controlled assessable; now it
convulses at warp speed. Change is now the name of the game for all
of us."
So what can we count on? What can we base our lives on that what won't disappoint us or let us down? Tune in Sunday for the exciting answer!!!

5th Sundays |
 March 29th!
Every quarter there is a month that has a 5th Sunday. On each of those 5th Sundays instead of our regular worship service the Bridge will have a service Sunday where we will get out of our 4 walls and help the community.
March 29, will be our first 5th Sunday! We will meet in the high school parking lot at 9am and will caravan over to one of the Allegan parks (we're not sure which one yet) to do some raking and general spring clean up. We'll plan on working until around noon or so.
It's BOYR (bring your own rake!) so if ya got 'em, bring 'em!
Everyone is welcome!

This will be a senior high group and, as with everything else we do, it will be casual, relational, and everyone is welcome. Watch for future e-newsletters for more info and directions to BrandAnna's!

Bridge Kids
|
Bridge Kids (K-4th grades) are still looking for another teacher (or two) and some more helpers on Sunday mornings. The curriculum is great! Just come in Sunday morning and get your detailed lesson plan that tells you exactly what the lesson is and what the teaching points are. Enjoy the exciting, funny, informative and interactive multimedia DVD's for the Bible lesson. Afterward use the "Q-Cards" with discussion questions to lead the kids into a deeper understanding and application of what they learned that day. All this with no preparation necessary earlier in the week! If you're interested in loving kids as a teacher or helper on Sunday mornings contact Roger at roger@crossingtogether.com. ________________________ |
