I look forward to being in worship with you this Sunday! Last Sunday, Associate Pastor Megan Katerjian closed out our "Begin" sermon series using Acts 2:42-47 to talk to us about "Beginning a New Church." If you missed the sermon, here it is for you to view and share.
Two Sundays ago I suggested you read the Gospel of Matthew in preparation for a new series which we'll begin this Sunday,
"Follow," a repeated word in the Gospel of Matthew. To be a disciple of Jesus is to follow him, to watch what he does, to listen to what he says, to be obedient to him, to allow the shape of his life to be pressed into our own, and so participate in the Kingdom of God.
Remember that beginning this Sunday we are back to our regular 3 worship service hours (7:55, 9:25 & 11:00AM). Because of the special music we have this Sunday, all 3 worship services will be held in the Sanctuary; then beginning September 17, we will go back to having our 11:00AM worship service in the Worship Arts Center.
Peace,
Pastor Jeff

Join us in the Sanctuary for composer Olivier Messiaen's work "Quartet for the End of Time," based on five verses from the Book of Revelation. It was composed and first heard on a brutally cold January night in 1941, at the Stalag VIIIA prisoner-of-war camp, in Görlitz, Germany.

New members are welcome on all parts. Anyone with a tuneful voice is welcome to join. Prior choral experience is helpful, but not necessary. No audition is required. The sole prerequisite is a love of praising God through musical worship and ministry.
