New Sermon Series begins this Sunday
In Acts 2:42-47, we read about a community of people whose lives had been radically altered by their life with Jesus. They were reshaped by their experience with Jesus and it showed. Over the next two months, we will let this passage be our guide as we explore the way the Spirit puts us together not just as a collection of people who go to church in the same building but as Jesus people for the world.
