Come Sunday at 9:00 or 10:15 a.m. and hear Rev. Jim Warren's sermon, "How Fast is Immediately?" In
Mark 1:14-20
, Mark tells us that Jesus called
his first disciples, and they followed him "immediately." We're not always so quick to follow Jesus. The sermon will explore how we come to follow Jesus.
What a joy! Marshall Alan Hieronymus will be dedicated at the 9:00 a.m. service. His parents are Ryan and Marie Hieronymus. Big brother is Noah, and grandparents are Ralph and Linda Lehmann.
At the 9:00 a.m. traditional service the Chancel Choir will gift us with an anthem, "Put Peace Into Each Other's Hands." The One and All band has a new song ready for you and it is very upbeat and inspiring. Come hear them at our 10:15 progressive service, and bring a friend who would appreciate a unique and welcoming atmosphere, complete with a complimentary bite to eat.
This month we are collecting for Ministry and More. Items needed: canned fruits and vegetables, boxed meals (mac & cheese, Hamburger Helper), canned soup with pull-top lids, cereal, crackers, cookies, and peanut butter & jelly. This is a fantastic food pantry that helps a lot of people! During
February we will be collecting for Center For Hope Food Pantry
