Africa Mission Trip Information Meeting
Our church will host a mission trip to Zambia, Africa in May 2017.  If you are interested in hearing more about this ministry trip, there will be an information meeting on Sunday, November 13 immediately after church in the LIGHT Bible Study Classroom. 
Zumba Has Returned!
A great way to invite friends who don't have a church to visit our new church home is to invite them to attend our free Zumba classes!  Classes are each Thursday night at 6:00 pm. Come join the fun...and invite your friends!


So the "Great get in the Building Rush" is over.  Now we must get about the business of building the Church (Of course the Church is the Body of Christ). Jesus has commanded each Christ Follower, to "Be His witnesses."  The last words Jesus spoke before He ascended to the Father, in Acts 1:8;  "...you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth," are incredibly important. They are, in essence, the marching orders for the Church. Sharing the Gospel, and making disciples is the 'business' of the Church.  Therefore, to be effective, we must continually ask ourselves some questions" "What's the business of the Church?"  To make disciples!  And then ask: "How's business?"  

There is an undeniable truth we gain from the Word of God; disciples make disciples!  Church 213, God has blessed us incredibly.  Now we decide how we respond to those blessings.  Do we sit on our "blessed assurance" in the fantastic new facility, or will we get busy doing "The Father's business;" that of making disciples?  

Please join me in making disciples for the Kingdom of God.  

I love you all,

Pastor Stan
