Sunday

This Sunday  we will be answering the question, "Who Overcomes the World?" We will listen to the witnesses and hear evidence about Who are the believers?, and What do they believe?  Read 1 John 5:1-12 in preparation.

Worship in the Park
Our much anticipated annual Worship in the Park will be August 30 at 11:00 a.m.  (That's not a typo, it is at 11:00.)  We'll eat right after the worship service.

Once again, we'll be at Longview Park Shelter #4.  Shelter #4 is a short drive southwest of the intersection of View High Drive and Longview Road.

Fried chicken & drinks will be provided.

 

 If your last name starts with:

     A-M bring a side to share.

     N-Z Bring a dessert to share.

Plan on fun and games for the whole family!

Announcing Fall Small Groups

A small group is a great way to get better connected, support each other in our journey, socialize and learn.

The material for this 6-week study will be "True Spirituality, Becoming a Romans 12 Christian." 

Plan to sign up at church on Sunday.
Small Group Leaders Training Seminar
Current leaders and those interested in leading new groups are invited to this 2 hour discussion of the "ins & outs" of small group life.

This is an exciting opportunity to grow spiritually deeper together. 

The same course will be offered twice:
  • Saturday, August 29, 9:00 am to 11:00 am, and
  • Tuesday, September 1, 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm.
Contact Randy Horn for more information.
Church Work Day
Saturday morning, September 5, has been tentatively set as a time to take care of some much needed building and grounds maintenance. 

The hallway upstairs has almost as many spots as a leopard and desperately needs a new coat of paint.  Another room looks so bad that Roger refuses to use it.  Our landscaping needs to be weeded and there are numerous places that just need some cleaning and attention. 

If you want to help, but Saturday, September 5 won't work for you, let us know when you will be available and we'll make appropriate arrangements.
 
Pizza will be provided for lunch.
Sermons Online
Most of our sermons are available for online listening or download.  You might want to listen because you missed a Sunday or because you thought it was so good you wanted to hear it again or maybe you just want something to keep you awake while your are driving.  You really don't need a special reason - just go to the "Following Jesus" section of our website and click on the link.
