Weekly Youth Update: 3/9-3/15

This Wednesday night, we have Bible study from 6:30-7:30! The gym opens at 6:00 for anyone wanting to hang out before we head up to the Loft for Bible study. Our new study series will take us through Psalm 51, showing us the depths of sin but the glory of God to redeem! Invite your friends and we look forward to seeing you there!

Sunday night, from 5pm-6pm, I will be hosting a meeting in the sanctuary updating the church on the student ministry, how adults can serve in the bigger picture, and how adults can serve for our upcoming 5-on-5 basketball tournament. Even if you’re unsure of how you can serve in the student ministry, come to the meeting to find out about unique and creative ways people can serve the youth in a meaningful, God-honoring way that will have a major impact on their lives and the life of the church.

Saturday, April 4, is our 5-on-5 Basketball Tournament! We are partnering with Greater Love Bible Church to host the tournament and to minister to the community.

The tournament will be from 8 am – 4 pm that Saturday. You must be between ages 12-17 and must register your teams on Friday, April 3, to be eligible to play. Registration will be from 5pm – 6pm on Friday, April 3. To register to play, you must show a report card with either a school ID or driver’s license.

The purpose of the Lord's Supper is not for us to go through the motions, but to remember all that Christ did for us. His body was broken and blood was shed for the forgiveness of our sins. Communion is a time to reflect, appreciate and give honor to Jesus for what He endured for us. This ordinance is not for everyone. This is only to be taken by those who are believers and accepted Jesus as their ultimate forgiver and leader. To partake in this service in an unworthy state is sin. 1 Corinthians 11:27 (NLT) 27 So anyone who eats this bread or drinks this...

The Wondrous Cross

Attention all! As you drive by or visit our church, take a moment to admire the beautiful cross located to the right of our main entrance. This Easter season, we'll be using this cross to commemorate the special days leading up to Jesus' glorious resurrection. Look for the color of the sash to change each day, reflecting the significance of the holy week. A big thank you to Sherry, Ann and Jimmy for making this beautiful cross possible! To God Be The Glory!
