This Sunday, we are celebrating 7 precious gifts from God! The Yens, Recios, Whaleys, and Cambron-Mellotts are dedicating their children. We are so thankful to be able to join with parents in raising these babies! And...to top it off, Michael will continue his study on the prayers of the Apostle Paul.

Michael announced last Sunday, we will be returning to our regular Sunday schedule on August 27th, with service times at 10am & 11:30am. Would you do us a favor and take 30 seconds to fill this out and let us know which service you plan on attending this fall?

Thanks!
