The Messenger

Love:


Sharing God’s Love!


Sometimes, showing the love of Jesus is as simple as putting on a smile, rolling up our sleeves, and serving others!


Rachel, Jill , Wendy , Rich, and Zach  had the wonderful opportunity to serve our community by volunteering at the concession stand during the East Ridge high school football game. They served hot dogs, hamburgers, nachos, pizza, pretzels, and drinks all in the name of Jesus!


It was an especially meaningful evening as the school celebrated Senior Night, honoring students and their families. The school was grateful for the extra helping hands, and They were grateful for the opportunity to serve!


They didn’t just serve food; they served with love, built relationships, and shared the presence of Christ in our community.


That’s what being in the church is all about loving people, building relationships, and making a difference, one act of kindness at a time!

Church Council Meeting – Wednesday Night


Our Church Council will meet tonight as we continue working together to strengthen the ministries and mission of our church.


This meeting provides an opportunity for our leaders to share updates, discuss upcoming events, make important decisions, and plan for the future of our congregation.


Church Council meetings are open to everyone! We encourage all members to attend, stay informed, share ideas, and take an active role in the life of our church.


Together, we can continue building a stronger church, growing in faith, and making a difference in our community!



Growing Together in God’s Word!

For the next two weeks, our Sunday School classes and Bible Study groups will study the same Scriptures and lessons as we grow together in faith.


Our hope is to inspire meaningful conversations beyond the classroom and strengthen our connection as a church family. When we study together, we grow together!


Can’t attend? Weekly lessons will be available below so everyone can stay connected.


Bring your Bible, bring your questions, and let’s grow together in God’s Word!
