There is some cool things happening in the life of our church this Sunday:
1) This Sunday only - bring new (or like new) shoes
ShoeCrew partners with Living Water International to raise funds for fresh water projects around the world.
We will collect shoes in the Cafe or children's department this Sunday. Asha (one of our 3rd graders) and her mom will deliver the shoes to St. Louis next week. Remember the shoes must be in new or gently used condition!
2) Homes with Hope's on-line auction closes this Sunday.
This takes the place of their annual gala which was flooded out by Harvey.
Click here to see prizes and bid!
3) We'll continue to learn more about
Philippians as we dive into the beautiful truths found in chapter 4.
See you Sunday!
