Dear Church Family, We all are saddled with imperfections. We can’t help it. It’s part of the human plight. This makes forgiving and being forgiven on of the absolute necessities of living a joyful and satisfying life. Forgiving, however, is at times easier said than done. On Sunday morning we will be confronted with one of our Lord’s most impactful stories. Our text is Matthew 18:21-35. The title of the sermon is “Learning to Forgive God’s Children.” Other verses that will prepare you for this pertinent and important message are Exodus 34:6-7, Ephesians 4:32, and Philemon 8-12. May the Lord bless our time together. I pray that you might forgive as you have been forgiven. God bless you and stay close to Jesus. Because of His Magnanimous Grace, Pastor...

Dear Church Family, Leadership is a privilege and a challenge. This is true in any area of life, but is especially true in the area of spiritual leadership. Money, promotions, and termination are not motivating factors when it comes to influencing people spiritually. How does one go about impacting others when only God can change hearts? On Sunday morning we will be looking at Acts 20:25-31. The title of the message is “the Marks of a Spiritual Leader.” Other verses that will prepare you for our time in God’s word are Psalm 78:70-72, Ezekiel 34:11-16, and Colossians 1:24-29. During the second service the message will be part of Bob Cameron’s ordination service. It should be a great day! May the Lord grant you the privilege of spiritually influencing others. Have a wonderful day! In His Matchless Grace, Pastor...

The title of the message is “Restoring God’s Children.” Other verses that will prepare you for our time in God’s word are I Kings 18:15-18, Proverbs 25:15, and 2 Thessalonians 3:10-15.
