Beating the Heat

For truly I tell you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you bear the name of Christ will by no means lose the reward.     -Mark 9:41

The water may not have remained cold throughout the day, but it has been available to anyone walking by during this dangerous heat wave. Just one way we seek to shine the light of God through faith and service from the heart of Anaheim.

With the temperature climbing toward 108 degrees, we moved Coffee Fellowship into the air conditioned library and replaced coffee with cold beverages. It was a fun time of connection and fellowship.

We have copies of the book available at church. You may pick one up this Sunday or arrange to drop by the office between 8am-2pm, Monday-Thursday. There is no fee for the book, however, an optional donation of $10 would cover the cost to the church.


If you live locally, but are unable to come to church to pick up a copy, please contact the office and Pastor Kim will arrange to have a book dropped off at your home.


You may prefer to read e-books. Good news! The book is available on all the digital reading platforms (Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Apple Books).
