Dean Regas at Royal Redeemer, Friday, Oct. 15
ExpandWhen something new appears in the night sky, everyone takes notice. Historically comets portended gloom and doom as a change to the status quo. Now, astronomers can’t wait for a chance to observe and study them when they wander close to Earth. And when a meteor hits the Earth like the one that exploded above Russia, you can’t help but look up.
Join Astronomer Dean Regas as he discusses where these sudden visitors come from and what we can do to protect ourselves from the next, “Big One.” He will also bring meteorite samples, actual space rocks for you to investigate. If it’s clear outside, join Cincinnati Observatory members for views through telescopes of the slim crescent Moon, stars, and more.
Friday, October 15, 7-8pm, followed by stargazing (weather permitting)
Cost is free. Tickets required. Register through Eventbrite https://bit.ly/3llA81s
Spark Sunday School Beginning Now!
ExpandOur Sunday morning program for children age 3 through Grade 4 includes age-appropriate teaching, games, crafts, song, dance, and missions as God’s Word is planted in kids’ hearts. Children are invited to Sunday School during the worship service and are picked up in their classrooms by parents.
In a constantly-changing world, ground your child’s heart in a living
relationship with God, whose love never changes, and in a calling to live out His love in the hearts of others.

That love -- whose obedience is wide and long and high and deep enough to dissolve a mountain of rightful wrath -- is the love you’ve been looking for all your life. No family love, no friend love, no mother love, no spousal love, no romantic love -- nothing could possibly satisfy you like that. All those other kinds of loves will let you down; this one never will. - Timothy Keller
