Miss all of you and continue to keep you in our prayers as well! Stay safe, sane, and healthy!
I John 5:14-15 “This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us -whatever we ask- we know that we have what we asked of Him.”

Baptism: It’s The Right Thing To Doby Michael Lewis August 30, 2020 |

This church believes in baptism as the way to access God’s grace through what Jesus did on the cross for us.
“Then Jesus went from Galilee to the Jordan River to be baptized by John. But John tried to talk him out of it. “I am the one who needs to be baptized by you,” he said, “so why are you coming to me?“ But Jesus said, “It should be done, for we must carry out all that God requires.” So John agreed to baptize him. After his baptism, as Jesus came up out of the water, the heavens were opened…And a voice from heaven said, “This is my dearly loved Son, who brings me great joy.” -Matthew 3:13-17
“Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” -Matthew 28:18-20
Acts 2:36-38; Acts 16:29-34; Romans 10:13; Acts 22:16; Romans 6:1-4; Ephesians 2:8; Galatians 3:26-27
Baptism is where we make a public statement about how, from that point forward, we are under new management, the Lordship of Jesus.
Baptism is:

This morning Christian Eggar is with us… Christian’s hometown is Miles City, Montana. He graduated from York College this past spring with a Bible/Ministry Degree. We are thankful to talk with him about our ministry opportunity in Youth and Worship. Please pray for our search process.
A big thank you… Last week we mentioned an important need that one of our families is facing. And as always, the church family here came though; thanks.
Thanks to Betty Rude and her crew for taking on the Youth Barn clean-up… For too long the Youth Barn has been treated as a giant storage area for things we wanted to move out of the church building (a collection of old furniture, tables, seats for the van taken out for more luggage space and much more). All these things have now been sorted through (and except for the van seats) have been given away or hauled off. Thanks to all who worked on this project, and a special thank you to Betty.

When will our Bible Classes resume? …Well, in reality, we don’t know. We long to get back to the ways things were, but we cannot do that as long as COVID cases are still increasing in our area.

Updates… We are bumping or Bible classes back to October, still waiting until our teachers and student feel a bit more comfortable. We are moving our Mission Sunday to November 1 Trying to stay flexible:)
Masks… Please check in the lobby. We have paper and cloth masks (cotton 3-layers) for anyone who would like one or two!
Several weeks ago the elders paused our search for a youth minister and worship leader. With the COVID outbreak, it just seemed too difficult to bring candidates in from other areas of the country or for our congregation to feel comfortable then about how we could participate in any kind of normal church life. However, an opportunity has unexpectedly presented itself. A young man who is just completing an internship with a congregation in Helena, Montana, has contacted us. He has a passion for youth ministry and loves to sing also.
His name is Christian Eggar, and earlier this year he graduated from a Christian college in Nebraska called York College with a Bible ministry degree. The elders have invited him to come over next Saturday, August 29th, to conduct a youth devotional in our Prayer Garden at 7pm. All interested youth and parents are invited. Christian will then lead worship for us the next morning, August 30th.
We believe we can safely gather with proper precautions to see if Christian is a possibility for us. We ask for your prayers and your participation to the extent you are comfortable providing it. Thanks.
Freda Campbell: Pray for the family of Joy Campbell. She passed away last Sunday.
