Guest Speaker: Lizette Hibbert, Head of Schools at LACS
Series: This is My Story
Scripture Focus: 3:12, 4:10-16
| | Moses didn't feel qualified to lead an entire nation or even speak in front of a group. In fact, he argued with God that he wasn't the right guy for the job. But yet, all these thousands of years later, we're still studying him. What made Moses who he was? This week, we'll see it wasn't his strength or confidence, but rather his humility that qualified him to lead. | |
Let the Evidence Speak — June 13
| | Our next event will be online via Zoom this Fri., June 13, at 7:00pm. A Christian OB/GYN will address problems associated with current medical treatments of patients suffering from gender dysphoria, which is the belief that you were assigned the wrong gender at birth. In the last ten years the number of patients suffering from this ailment has increased drastically, especially among children and adolescents. Here is the Zoom link. For more information, call Kirby Hansen: (650) 917-9107. | | Memorial Service for Laura Rodolari | | A memorial service for Laura Rodolari will be held on Sun., June 22, at 2:00pm in the Bridges Worship Center, followed by a reception in the Family Center. All are welcome to come and honor Laura's life. | | Collecting Bridges History | | This year marks the 85th anniversary of Bridges/FBCLA! As we work on a special way to celebrate this milestone, we need your help.
