REGULAR WORSHIP SERVICES

SUNDAYS: 8 am & 10:30 am

SATURDAYS: 5:30 pm

SUNDAY SCHOOL: 9:15 am

SUNDAY SCHOOL ("GROWING IN CHRIST") The account of “Paul and Silas in Prison” serves as the focus of Sunday School today. Just as God freed Paul and Silas from prison, granting them life out of death, so Christ by His crucifixion and resurrection frees me from the prison of my sins and grants me life eternal. Questions for discussion include “How is this event more that just a story about Paul’s escape from prison?” and “How has God rescued us from the prison of sin?”

“ANGELS” ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL BIBLE CLASS  Began April 15, 9:15 am, in the Fellowship Hall, taught by Pastor Brechbuhl.  Here is a little of the rich biblical teaching about angels:
1. They are spirit beings who were created holy.
2. Some angels rebelled against God. They are the devils or demons.
3. The good angels are many and powerful. They serve God and help us.
4.  The evil angels are also many and powerful. They hate God and seek to destroy everything that is good, especially faith in Christ.
Please join us!

WEDNESDAY BIBLE CLASS 10 am: We are reading through the New Testament Letters of St.  Paul lead by Pastor Brechbuhl.  We meet in the Conference Room.  Please join us and bring a friend.  We continue with 1 Timorthy. 

FRIDAY AM BIBLE BREAKFAST, 6:45 am, CONFERENCE ROOM: We have begun a study of the New Testament Letter to the Romans.  The theme of Romans is that God justifies and forgives by grace through faith in Jesus Christ!
