Worship at Slash Church

We meet in small groups each Sunday morning at 9 a.m.

Sunday ONE Worship will be held in the sanctuary at 10 a.m. Children Worship & Wonder will be offered in the Children's Worship Center. All worship services are being livestreamed on Facebook & YouTube. Please tune in when you cannot be here.

We are not requiring masks, but anyone may wear a mask while on campus. If you are feeling sick please do not attend, instead participate in worship online. The diaconate will serve as the welcome team to receive offerings and hand out communion as you enter the sanctuary.

From Sunday:

Power Shifts

Actions

Acts 15:4-21

We know that outreach and mission are the heart of the Gospel and that small power shifts in our lives can realign us to reach the lost and those who have never heard about God’s love and Jesus’ Sacrifice.

We began this Power Shifts series a few weeks ago by talking about how small changes in the way we share, and love others can multiply the harvest. Two weeks ago, Rev. Rebecca helped us to understand how our attitude toward serving and sharing with others can make a large difference in how they see and experience God in us.

Today we want to talk about how our actions, the things we focus on and do, can create a Power Shift that will transform the world.
