Masks For Music Ministry Fundraiser Ends on September 27! |
We are selling homemade cloth masks to raise funds to purchase outdoor sound equipment. Thanks to your support, we have raised almost $1,000 and have been able to purchase new microphone cords, two new speakers, and an outdoor soundboard!
Still need a mask during this pandemic time? Try one of ours, carefully made by our Faith Knotters! Each mask has an elastic band so there are no strings to tie. There are sizes for adults and children with some of your favorite colors and patterns. Purchase one for everyone in your family to help support a good cause.
Masks will be available for pick up during outdoor worship on September 27. The cost of each mask is $5.00. For more information about this fundraiser please contact Pastor Reggie. Thank you!

SPARK Lesson: "The Chief Priests"
This Sunday, we will read from the Gospel of Matthew and learn about the chief priests who ask Jesus a tricky question. In his answer, Jesus tells a story about two sons who were asked to work in a vineyard. The first son said no and then worked anyway; the second said yes, but never went to work. The story tells us that no question is too tricky or hard for Jesus, and he will always answer our questions!

Hi Nursery Buddies and Parents!
We are into our lesson on the beautiful Creation story. This is where we all started from. It’s more then amazing how powerful and thoughtful God is as He created the universe and all that is in it. There’s also the connection each one of us living things has to this one Scripture, we all relate to being created.
Re-read: Genesis 1:1-31 (This can be a great way to start a tradition of reading scripture during dinner, at bath time or bedtime.)
Bible Memory: Genesis 1:1 “In the beginning God created the heavens and earth”
Song to sing: He’s Got the Whole World In His Hands
This week’s color: The second thing God created was the sky and water. Our color is blue! Brainstorm things that are blue; you can draw and color them, even pick out your favorite shade of blue because there are so many!
Adventure: Go on a walk and try to spot things that are blue.
Have Fun,
Jenni Payne
Nursery Coordinator
