Extreme Adventure

April 6 | 2014 | 9:00 and 10:45 am

This week we will be learning about being faithful to God ALWAYS. Elijah knew he needed a plan for the day he was called to heaven. He found a young apprentice named Elisha. In the time they had together, Elijah taught Elisha what it meant to be faithful to God in every circumstance. When Elijah was taken to heaven, Elisha had many opportunities to leave but he didn't. Elisha was faithful to Elijah. Elijah was faithful to God. Every one of us must be faithful no matter what the circumstances or difficulties we face. In the end God will reward us for our faithfulness.
