This Sunday's Theme:

"Wanted: Dead or Alive!"

Philippians 1:18b-26

In-person and Live Stream to Facebook and YouTube at 10:30 AM

Good afternoon Church,

The Marriage Course has been well received! We are grateful for the response that we have received, and we are praying for God’s renewal in these important relationships. This Sunday we will learn about the “Love Languages” and enjoy enchiladas, rice, beans, chips, and salsa with churros for dessert. Please pray that God will bless our work with these couples. It is such a privilege to serve them!

This weekend we will celebrate Labor Day weekend. In the Midwest, this was the weekend that officially brought an end to the summer. Does anyone else remember ‘no wearing white after Labor Day’? Well, no worries here – it is still in the heat of the summer. Wear all the white that you want! In the meantime, I hope that you have a wonderful Labor Day weekend.

We will continue with our worship theme on the book of Philippians this Sunday as we focus on the theme, “Wanted: Dead or Alive! The scripture comes from Philippians 1:18-26.

Hope to see you this Sunday!
