November 6 Worship Service

Today we were blessed to worship the Lord together, singing, confessing our faith, confessing our sins, receiving assurance of pardon through Christ our Lord, and hearing a sermon on 1 Chronicles 21.  We were reminded to give God our best, not our leftovers, to sacrifice ourselves -- our time, talents, and good gifts -- the way that the Lord sacrificed his only begotten son Jesus.  This evening's message "I Am the One Who Comforts You" is from Isaiah 51.

July 31st Worship Services

We would like to invite our friends and neighbors to join us for Sunday Services today. Our worship is Christ centered, reverent, and spiritual. A particular focus is on the Preaching of the Word of God and its application to our lives, teaching us to observe all that Christ our Lord has commanded us. Our services are at 10:30 AM and 6:00 PM.

Pastor Sawyer will be preaching on Luke 12 and the Folly of Materialism, and in the evening our Pastoral Intern, Mr. Kevin Olivier will present a message on the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant from Matthew 18.

July 17th Worship Services

This morning's message was based on Luke 13: 1-9.  At the beginning of his sermon, Pastor Jack asked us to imagine how most people would react if Noah were there neighbor.  How they might scoff at him for building an ark, erecting an eyesore in the neighborhood, bringing down everyone's property value.  In New Testament times, many people still don't believe that the Lord is coming back on Judgment Day.  Luke 13: 1-9 is a call to repent.  Now.

At this evening's service, Pastor Jack will be preaching a message entitled "Inherit a Blessing" based on 1 Peter 3.  There will be a Finger Food Fellowship following the service.  We would love for you to join us.

Have a blessed day!
