More Than Words
Bringing Life to Our Words
June 12, 2022
James 1:15-17
1 John 2:3-6
[3]We know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands. [4]Whoever says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person. [5]But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him: [6]Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.
John 13:15-17
[15]I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. [16]Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. [17]Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.

At the conclusion of the vote, we will have an abbreviated worship service. At the conclusion of the service, we will announce the results of the vote. We will not livestream this service.

Family Night Supper Schedule
Family Night Supper
After taking a break over the summer months, our Family Night Supper started back this past week. We had a great turnout!
Each Wednesday, we gather at 6pm in the Fellowship Hall to enjoy always delicious food, wonderful fellowship with each other, and have a short devotion time.
If you’re on a serving team, you should have been contacted by your team leader over the past week or so. If you were not contacted but would like to join a team, we would love to have you, and you can let Ashley Brown know.
A complete calendar of volunteer teams and dates is available in the newsletter and on our website. Or, grab a hard copy from the church this Sunday!
