Upcoming events.
PopTops!
Kids and Little Kids are collecting the tabs from soda or soup cans. POP TOPS can be recycled and the funds will go to support Ronald McDonald house. Kids think its pretty important to keep families together if a kid is in the Hospital!
We are asking our Church family to pick up a collection container from the lobby and take it to work or maybe ask your favorite restaurant to collect or just have one at home for friends and family! As we focus on Stewardship this November, what better lesson for our kids to be good stewards of the earth and recycle? We love encouraging them to think of others and feel empowered to do what they can to help!

The Chosen Bible Study: Season Three (Copy) (Copy)
Discover what it means to belong to and be blessed by God.
We all have to choose: the wide road that leads to destruction or the narrow path that leads to life. The third season of the groundbreaking television show, The Chosen, picks up with how Jesus’ followers apply His teaching to their lives.
The Way of the Chosen is an eight-lesson interactive Bible study for individuals or small groups that works in tandem with each episode of the show. In modeling “the narrow road that leads to life” it includes:
· Forgiving the way Jesus does
· Going when and where He says to go
· Grieving what He grieves
· Standing firm on His words and character
· Delighting in the things that please Him
· Asking because He says to
· Welcoming those He welcomes
· Trusting His will and way
Readers will be challenged to move from knowing who Jesus is to living out their faith by going the way of the Chosen.
