HANGING OF THE GREENS:
Come on up to the church this Saturday for our annual Hanging of the Greens, when we decorate the church for the Christmas Season! We will get started with our decorating at 10:00 a.m., and will break to enjoy some delicious homemade soup together at noon.
CELEBRATE:
This week’s topic is the spiritual practice of Fellowship/Accountability. As maturing followers of Christ, we embrace fellowship and accountability to grow stronger in the faith and more consistent in our walk with Him. Have you seen the power of fellowshipping with other believers be of benefit or be helpful in keeping you accountable in some area that you wished to change?
