Bandage Rolling
Friday, January 27 | 12pm | Our Nazarene mission hospital in Papua New Guinea uses bandages made out of old sheets for many things, "kind of a duct tape" they say. Join us for our part of the process. We take old donated sheets and tear and roll them into tight rolls. They are then sent to Oregon and then to Papua New Guinea where they are sterilized and used.

Youth Pie Auction and Dinner
Sunday, January 29 | 11:15am | The moment you’ve all been waiting for… Pie Auction 2023! This year’s don’t-miss event will be immediately following the morning service and includes a free spaghetti lunch. Bring a pie to donate, if you want, some money to buy a pie, if you want, and some wandering eyes to mooch off someone else's pie, if you want. This fundraiser is for funds to offset student activities.

Faith Promise
February 18 & 19 | Stephen Sickel will be joining us to talk about his time in missions and the impact of Faith Promise. Faith Promise gifts are gifts given systematically for global missions throughout the year. They are a promise between the individual and God. Giving through Faith Promise is an adventure and an opportunity to allow God to show how He provides when we open our hearts in generosity. Saturday night, 6pm, we are having a soup dinner and listening to Stephen speak about his and God's work. No dish required and no signup, just come. Digital Faith Promise Cards are available at https://forms.gle/wtuk1PVy2AzgErZD9

Ash Wednesday
Wednesday, February 22 | 6:30pm | Join us for a special service that marks the beginning of the season of Lent, a season that is a time of penitence, discipline, and renewal. Children and youth are invited to join the service. PreK programming will be provided in the children's center. Supper will be provided beforehand from 5:30-6:15pm as usual.

Goodness Of God

I love You Lord
Oh Your mercy never fails me
All my days
I've been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
I will sing of the goodness of God

Chorus
All my life You have been faithful
All my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
I will sing of the goodness of God

I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In darkest night
You are close like no other
I've known You as a father
I've known You as a friend
I have lived in the goodness of God

Bridge
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
With my life laid down
I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
Your goodness is running after
It's running after me

Where Do We Grow From Here: Grow Smaller
Acts 2:42-47
January 29, 2023

How do we grow from here?
Grow Deeper

How do we grow from here?
Grow Deeper
Grow Wider

How do we grow from here?
Grow Deeper
Grow Wider
Grow Stronger

Ephesians 4:16
From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.

An organization’s vision is only as clear as the vision of the organization’s members.

Acts 2:42
They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.

Acts 2:42 (The Message)
They committed themselves to… the life together.

Galatians 6:2
Carry one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

The smaller the group, the better the fellowship.

Where do we grow from here?
Grow Smaller

Acts 2:42-47
They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts.

Acts 2:42-47
They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

When a church decides to GROW SMALLER they can more easily grow larger.
Build Your Kingdom Here

Verse 1
Come set Your rule and reign
In our hearts again
Increase in us we pray
Unveil why we're made
Come set our hearts ablaze with hope
Like wildfire in our very souls
Holy Spirit come invade us now
We are Your church
We need Your pow'r in us

Verse 2
We seek Your kingdom first
We hunger and we thirst
Refuse to waste our lives
For You're our joy and prize
To see the captives' hearts released
The hurt the sick the poor at peace
We lay down our lives for heaven's cause
We are Your church
We pray revive this earth

Chorus
Build Your kingdom here
Let the darkness fear
Show Your mighty hand
Heal our streets and land
Set Your church on fire
Win this nation back
Change the atmosphere
Build Your kingdom here we pray

Verse 3
Unleash Your kingdom's pow'r
Reaching the near and far
No force of hell can stop
Your beauty changing hearts
You made us for much more than this
Awake the kingdom seed in us
Fill us with the strength and love of Christ
We are Your church
We are the hope on earth
