Weekly Invite – 27 August 2017
Summer Worship Schedule will run until Sunday, 3 September. This coming Sunday, we’ll complete our study on Romans 8.
Summer Vacation Bible School for Youth and Children: “Growing in Grace and Gratitude” will be the theme.The overarching theme is found in Ephesians 2:8-10: For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
