WORSHIP ... GROW ... SERVE.
NEW SERMON SERIES: FULLY DEVOTED
This Sunday (3/11):  Celebrate
Scripture:  Hebrews 10:19-25

This Sunday we will unpack the importance of Celebrating weekly in worship.  In Hebrews 10:24-25, we read, " And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds,   not giving up meeting together,   as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another-and all the more as you see the Day approaching."  What we will learn is that when we worship together weekly, we have an opportunity to draw near to God with one another.  Does this mean that we can't draw near to God on our own?  No, we certainly can, and should draw near to God on a daily basis.  But doing this on our own ONLY can leave us one dimensional and can cause us to miss out on encouraging one another, and being encouraged by the body of believers. - ART   
Note:  This is the second of four sermons about our call to create MC3

PRAYER AND FASTING - As we approach Easter Sunday and the launch of MC 3+ on April 1, we wanted to invite you to join us in a time of prayer and fasting.  We encourage you to seek the Lord on
how He wants you to pray and fast during this month of March.  Remember, it is through prayer and fasting that we can take our eyes off of the things of this world, and better focus on Christ.
Congratulations to these students who completed the "God's Great Plan" 7-week course:  Zoie Cameron, August Cobb,  Ava Davis, Nina Gardner, Sydney Jones, and Bella Montgomery. Than ks, Donna Dukett, for instilling in these children the importance of salvation and baptism.
