The Wednesday morning Bible study is beginning a new study on 9/ 8 and you’re invited to join it! This group meets at 9:30 AM in the Library. The new study is A Deeper Look at Daniel: Spiritual Living in a Secular World where you'll discover: how God has been at work throughout history; how the sins of our predecessors can influence us; how to stand firm when your faith and values are challenged; and much more! If you're longing to go deeper in your understanding of God and his Word, this study will meet your need for both rich, solidly researched content and personal application as well as challenge your head and your heart. To join, please contact Tina Wilburn or Kim Collins to get a book ordered ASAP.
Hot Dog Collection: Now thru 9/5
As you know, we have not been able to give away hot dogs at Kids Korner the past two years due to COVID. However, it was suggested that we collect hot dogs anyway, as we have in the past, and give them to We Care to be distributed through their food pantry. Therefore, between now and September 5, we are asking you to please bring hot dogs with you on Sunday mornings and place them in the cooler in the foyer. Thanks for your consideration and if you have any questions, please contact Kim.

We thank Rocky Starland for all the time and effort he has invested in making these videos and reminding us of our past in such an interesting way! The latest video can be found at
