Committee Gathering:
TONIGHT @ 6PM
All committee members are encouraged to come and participate in this important time for our church. At 6pm we will gather in the worship center for a time of worship and a word of encouragement from our pastor. Then each group will be dismissed for a time of focused prayer for their committee's ministry. After this prayer time, committees may then meet and address any organizational matters, such as selecting a chairperson, if they have not done so. Committees can also take advantage of this opportunity to make plans for their ministry in the upcoming church year. Please plan to participate.
(There is a planned service for those that may not be on committees).

Combined Worship Service
We gather together
JOINT WORSHIP SERVICE: On Sunday, December 13 our contemporary worship service and our blended worship service will come together for a joint service at 10:30am.
This will be a special time of celebration of the Christmas season as we worship together.
Music for this joint service will be led by our contemporary praise team and our blended worship choir will present a Christmas musical entitled, "Only Love."
*For contemporary worshipers: Small Bible Fellowship Groups will meet from 9:15am - 10:15am rather than their regular schedule on this Sunday only. We will then dismiss and join the blended worship service at 10:30am for a great worship celebration. The Holy Grounds Cafe will be open from 9am-9:15am.
