Its official! Bob is now the new Senior Pastor of Burns Christian Church! He begins February 1 and Michelle and Bob are both very excited about where God is leading.
Bob an Michelle have started a blog so that we can keep up with all that is happening and stay informed on how to pray for them. To see the blog, simply click on Bob's picture (you guess).
The Yunker's have asked that we continue to pray for them, especially their for their fundraising efforts. If you would like to help them financially, check out the blog where you can get more details.
This is a great time for couples to come and learn more about each other in beautiful Sunriver. For more details and/or sign-up, contact Rick and Michelle Shaffer at 536-6272.
Our TLC Groups are designed to be a safe place where people can be discipled in relational environments through teaching, friendships and fun. The Bible teaches us that every person needs this kind of group in their life. Plainly put, if you don't have a TLC Group, you need one.
We have a blog specifically designed for TLC Group Leaders or potential leaders who want to use the previous Sunday's message for leading their teaching times. It is an easy way to begin a group and it helps your people learn more what was taught on Sunday morning.
