Easter/Lenten Season devotional
Ash Wednesday (Feb. 17) was the first day of Lent. Lent is a season of reflection and preparation before the celebration of Easter. This year Easter is on April 4th. We have compiled a family devotional for every Sunday leading up to Easter. We hope this will be an encouragement to you during this meaningful season.

SUNDAY MORNINGS - Join us for THE JOURNEY
When God called Abraham, He simply said, “Go… to the land I will show you.” Let that sink in for a moment. “Leave everything familiar to you- your relatives, your homeland, etc; and go where you’ve never been before- to a new land I have for you! I will let you know when you get there!”
We’ve all been on a journey through this pandemic that has felt a lot like that. We know God has a plan, but we don’t know exactly where we’re headed. And so, just like Abraham, we continue this journey in faith.
Join us for a New Year JOURNEY in faith as we study the life of Abraham, beginning January 10th, 2021!
All Services can be watched LIVE on . . .

***About Newcomer Class
Our goal is that every person who comes through the doors of our church would eventually become GROUNDED, GROWING, and GIVING in every facet of their lives. In order to help people understand each of these ideas and then commit to pursuing them, we offer an opportunity to meet with members of the pastoral staff to help answer questions about joining the church body.
Our Newcomer class is perfect for anyone who wants to know about our faith family. Pastor Steve Watkins can answer your questions about our church. This is also a great way to find out which LifeGroup might be a good fit to try out the following Sunday.
If you are new to our faith family and would like to learn more about who we are, or if you are wanting to invite a friend to come check out our church, we hope you’ll check out our Newcomer class which meets every Sunday morning at 9:00 .m. in room 214. Sign Up to attend here.
