You Think You Had A Bad Week?


You may look back on your week and think of the trials, tasks and goals that were either met, missed, or simply endured.  As Easter approaches, take a moment and to gain some perspective.  Yes, we can have a good week or bad week, but nothing matches the week Jesus had.  Take a look at what He endured for you and I just to have a relationship with us.


Sunday (Triumphant Entry Into Jerusalem)
Monday (Cleansing The Temple)
Tuesday (Controversies With Jewish Leaders)
Wednesday (Rest)
Thursday (Preparation for The Passover)
Friday (Rigged Trial and Crucifixion)
Saturday (Jesus Rests In His Tomb)
Sunday (Jesus Raises From The Dead)

How does your weekly schedule look in comparison to His?

Hebrews 9:28 (NLT)
. . . so also Christ was offered once for all time as a sacrifice to take away the sins of many people. He will come again, not to deal with our sins, but to bring salvation to all who are eagerly waiting for him.

Take time this week to keep in mind the great life changing work Christ did for you and those who will call on His name. Spend some time in prayer, reading the Easter story and spending time with other believers in worship! Turn your bad week into a life changing week!

Pictures from Our Send Off for Nathan and Jody O'Neill

Last night was bittersweet for us as we said goodbye to our youth Pastor Nathan O'Neill and his wife Jody. They both have served well here and we know God will continue to bless them as Nathan goes to serve in his new ministry. Our love and prayers go with them.

Confession, Reflection and The Lord's Supper

Yesterday, our church observed the ordinance of the Lord''s Supper or Communion as some call it.  Our church is blessed to have a committee that prepares this for us on every fifth Sunday.  This practice is designed to take us back in our hearts and minds to that dreadful night where Jesus sat at a table with His disciples to prepare them for His pending crucifixion .   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...

Pastor's Post: Worshiping Expectantly (Genesis 4:26)

I am so excited to be meeting in person on Sunday after only meeting virtually for the past two weeks on facebook live. I ran across this thought the other day. Moses wrote in Genesis about creation this gem: Genesis 4:26 NLT When Seth grew up, he had a son and named him Enosh. At that time people first began to worship the Lord by name. This is the first time since creation and the fall of man where worship was recorded as happening.  This is the “genesis” of how and why we worship today.  We do not worship an unnamed impersonal God.  We worship “Yahweh” (“I Am”)!  He is our creator, Heavenly father.  Worship is not an obligation, it is a privilege! It is an expression of our love for God for all He has given us!  I encourage you to worship Him Sunday with other believers.  Whether it be with our church family or another one.  Worship corporately with those who want to do the same.  Let’s not take our worship opportunities for granted but vi...
