Please pray for our congregation... that we might grow and become more like Jesus. Our classes and preaching in the coming months will all focus on patterning our lives on the Lord. Let’s all rededicate ourselves to becoming more like Him in every way.

You can read through the New Testament in 90 Days... What a great way to begin the first quarter of 2012! Notice the insert that breaks the New Testament down into 90 segments. Let’s do it!

Wednesday Night Inspiration... Different men, from whom we don’t normally get to hear, will each speak about a specific teaching of Jesus and how it has impacted their lives. Wes Reese presented a remarkable and powerful message about Jesus and Forgiveness last week. Isaac Cutler and Kurt Roush also did some great things during the devotional time. Don’t miss these amazing Wednesday nights. This week, Andy Ponder will talk to us about “Jesus and Compassion”. Kirk Davidson and Paul Welter will follow after that. Let’s support these men!

Alan McCormick is stepping down as a deacon—primarily because he is so involved with the Downtown Ministry, but also because, as building custodian, he is now a member of church support staff, and it is our tradition here that church staff does not serve as deacons or elders at the same time that they are employed by the church.
