COME worship this Sunday as we recommit our lives to God  
Nov 12th
10:00 a.m.



 


Relationships are tricky things. As we approach the holiday season, we may be confronted with difficult feelings.  Perhaps the loss of a relationship will be particularly tender this holiday season.  Perhaps differences of opinion might get in the way of family ties.  In the middle of all of that, let us not lose sight of our relationship (difficult or not) with God. 

God calls us into a relationship with one another and with Jesus Christ.  That relationship changes the way we approach everything in life from work and income to our leisure and our giving.

We are wrapping up our sermon series this week: "Happiness Can Be Yours - The Simple Joys that Can Change Your Life" and we are going to be making commitments this week.  We will offer up our intentions for our lives and we will make a promise to God to be faithful with God's many gifts in our life.

As God gives us many gifts, our lives can be a gift back to God.  We can worship Jesus Christ and serve God's children here and now.

I can't wait to see you this Sunday. 

Be a blessing to someone this week.


Pastor David Petty
