Hey church family…hope you are enjoying the sun and warmth because another year is flying by! Thank you to everyone for your faithfulness to the Lord and our church during these busy summer months.
More opportunities are available as we prepare for our financial stewardship program this month. Even now ask God to prepare your heart to give toward our church’s need for your time, talent and financial resources. 2 Corinthians 9:6-7 tells us that God wants to bless our giving motives and He loves a cheerful giver! Let’s do our part to honor the Lord in our gifts back to Him! Our motto this year will be “Building our Faith”. Everyone will have a block piece to build on Jesus as our foundation with one another. Be a part of the greater whole!
In Christ,
Pastor Wendell
