"Home Sermon Series Continues

Follow us on Facebook

 

 This Sunday morning we continue in our series "Home".  This week I will be looking atHome: A Place Where We Find Relationship  In this series we are discussing how God uses His church to grow our faith.  Was there someone that God placed in your life that was a key reason your faith grew?  As we reflect on our faith journey we often identify these key players who made all the difference in the world.  Who was it that made that important difference?   Are you that person in someone else's life?  Do you want to be?  Join us as talk about relationships that make a huge difference in the growth of our faith.

Are We Determined?
And again He entered Capernaum after some days, and it was heard that He was in the house. Immediately many gathered together, so that there was no longer room to receive them, not even near the door. And He preached the word to them. Then they came to Him, bringing a paralytic who was carried by fourmen. And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where He was. So when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, "Son, your sins are forgiven you." Mark 2:1-5 (NKJV) 
11 I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house." 12 Immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went out in the presence of them all, so that all were amazed and glorified God, saying, "We never saw anything like this!" Mark 2:11-12 (NKJV) 
Jeff Riley will be preaching this Sunday night, plan to join us as he teaches on this exciting passage of scripture.
What an absolutely amazing week!!! Words can not express my gratitude for the number of volunteers that put in countless hours to make VBS happen! Most importantly I stand amazed at what God has done this week through VBS. We had a total of 19 children accept Christ as Savior is week. Sunday we had 188 in attendance, Monday 195, Tuesday 177, Wednesday 196, and tonight 189! Indeed we serve an Awesome God (Thanks everybody!!!)-Jeff

After a week of VBS, I am completely amazed by the almost thirty fifth and sixth graders I got to be a crew leader to. I enjoyed every day and wouldn't change a single minute of the whole experience. Those kids made such a big impact on my life as I hope the week made an impact on theirs.  (Amber is a college student who attends Faith)
