Holy Spirit: Unleashed
|
 This Sunday we celebrate Pentecost, the day the Holy Spirit was unleashed on all people in dramatic fashion. Before this day, however, the Holy Spirit was only given to prophets, priests, or kings, but now God is sending the Holy Spirit to all people. What was it like on that day? What does that mean for us? Come and see. Worship is at 10 a.m. at North Trail Elementary.

And, if you have one, wear your LOTW T-shirt. Or, order yours to wear this summer!

The Acts of the Holy Spirit
|
The last few weeks in worship we have heard stories from the book of Acts where the Holy Spirit is getting loose on ordinary and unlikely people. During May we will hear more stories from the book of Acts. These stories will focus on the early church as it struggles to decide how it will organize, what it will keep from Judaism, and how to witness to those outside the Jewish faith. ~~ Pastor Hollie
