Join us for Fellowship Groups at 9:30 am and for our Worship Service at 10:45 am. Tomorrow is Mother&#8217;s Day! We will have a special gift for the mothers who are with us tomorrow as our way of saying thank you for everything you have done and continue to do. As a church, it is an honor for us to honor mothers. The heart of a mother reveals the glory of God; they are a living example of the self-sacrificing, nurturing, and kind heart of God. We are so very thankful for all of you women who have poured your lives out to raise children and to raise disciples for Christ&#8217;s Kingdom. You are loved!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Tomorrow we have the privilege of opening our Bibles to Acts chapter 1 as we begin our journey together through that wonderful book, which chronicles the history of the earliest church. Jacob will be sharing with us as we kick this teaching series off. I am really looking forward to walking through this together with you!<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>May the grace and peace of the Lord be with each one of you. May the remainder of this Saturday be filled with rest and reflection on the goodness of Jesus Christ. Remember to pray for one another, especially as the Lord puts a specific name or face in your mind. See you tomorrow!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>In His steps,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Pastor Nick<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Acts 1:5 NASB20 \u2014 &#8220;for John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good afternoon church family, I am looking forward to being with you on the Lord&#8217;s Day tomorrow!
