Memorize Psalm 23 with the Church Family

This summer we are beginning a new sermon series called, “The Shepherd: A Study of Psalm 23”. Each week we will be studying one phrase from this Psalm and seeking to dive deep into its profound truth and implications for our lives. As we learn from Psalm 23 we are also encouraging the entire church family to memorize this psalm together and to be regularly praying through it and meditating on it. To help with this process, we are passing out a memory notecard on Sunday June 30th. Extras can also be found in the office if you did not receive one!

Witness the Word with Us | July 14th

Join us at our Scripture Reading Dinner as we read Matthew and share a meal together! We are gathering on the second Sunday of each month; this month will be July 14th @ 5pm in the Fellowship Hall. Each time we choose a book of the Bible to read all of the way through together, taking turns reading a chapter at a time, and engaging in optional discussion afterwards. We hope to honor the way that Jesus would teach the disciples while they broke bread together and engage with God’s Word being read in its entirety.
