SUMMER BOOK CLUB INFO AND SIGN-UP

Ladies of Faith - Do you love to read fiction? We would like to start a social Women's Book Club. This is not a Bible Study. The primary focus of this book club is to provide fellowship among ladies of Faith with a shared love of reading. We will read a book on our own time, meet at a host’s house, discuss the book, and enjoy fellowship with each other.

How can you join? Please sign up using the link below, and stay tuned for the first book and date of the first meeting.

FINANCIAL PEACE UNIVERSITY BEGINS THIS WED, JUNE 7 - SPACE IS STILL AVAILABLE!

This summer we will be offering Financial Peace University, which is a 9-week course that teaches people how to pay off debt, live on a budget, and invest for their future. Led by nationally syndicated radio host Dave Ramsey and his team, Financial Peace University offers a Biblical perspective on how to handle money. Millions of families nationwide have found success following this plan; some of our members took this course earlier this year, and paid off $32,000 in debt and saved $14,000!

Through our church’s site license, you can gain access to all the course materials at no charge. Just click here to create an account. To sign up for the class, click here. Sessions begin on Wednesday, June 7 @ 6:30 p.m., and run for 9 weeks.

This class is open to all of our members, as well as people in the community. If you know of someone who would be interested, feel free to invite them and share this information. Contact Joshua Kramer if you have questions or need help with the signup process. Hope to see you there!

What does it mean to be a disciple of Christ? Matthew's gospel describes how Jesus called His disciples and then molded their minds, hearts, and wills. Jesus prepared His disciples for their work and He prepares us also. The second of a two-part study of the book of Matthew, covers chapters 14 through 28. It presents the account of Jesus' life. The Lord said, "Follow Me" and in doing so he shows how he called and trained his disciples (and us) to proclaim his death and resurrection to the world.
