The Training & Mission
Pastor Jerry Koller
Jesus said:
The Apostle Paul told Timothy:
· The Author of Hebrews tells us we are trained to discern good and evil.
· He also mentions how God sometimes trains us through discipline so that we may enjoy the peaceable fruit of righteousness.
Name order, in New Testament times, often reflected an element of significance or importance.
· i.e. Priscilla and Aquila
The word apostle means one who is sent forth. In fact, it denotes one who is sent with full authority.
1st Mission Assignment
Jesus gives them marching orders.
Be On Guard
Teacher/Student Relationship
Do Not Be Afraid
No Divided Allegiances
Results:
APPLICATION
Purpose in Life—Make sure you are putting your training to work.
You Will Face Opposition—Do not be afraid.
No Divided Allegiances—Keep in mind the fact that we serve the Son of God.

Flower Bed Maintenance Needed

Spring is finally here and we need help maintaining the church’s flowerbeds. If you're willing to adopt-a-flower bed for the summer, please contact the church office or feel free to stop by the church at your convenience and pull weeds from whatever flowerbed catches your eye. If you contact us in advance, we can arrange for the shed to be open so you can get tools; otherwise feel free to bring your own.

Fundraiser: Door Repairs and Replacement

GOAL: $14,400 | RAISED: $6800 If you have noticed when you enter the church through our main entrance, the outside steel doors are in rough shape. It has been determined that they need to be replaced. In addition, all the fire doors in the east wing need repair or adjustments; so do the double steel doors in the gym on the east side of the building. If there is any way you could contribute to this expense, it would be greatly appreciated. You can simply mark your donation with “Doors” and drop it in the offering on Sunday morning or make an online contribution at

Volunteers Needed

We would like to resume having Greeters and a Welcome Center attendant on Sunday mornings. If you are willing to serve in any of these areas, please contact Kim ASAP to be put on the upcoming schedule. Thank you!

Celebrate Freedom | Hot Dog Giveaway: 7/3

Sunday, July 3 | Kids’ Corner Park

After a 2-year hiatus, we are SO excited to resume this event! To celebrate Independence Day, we will be giving away free hot dogs and sharing the freedom we have in Christ with our community… don’t miss our annual event which will be here in just a few short weeks!
Get Involved!
« MONETARY SUPPORT NEEDED...We are hoping to give away at least 1500 free hot dogs at this event. If you would like to make a donation towards the purchase of hot dogs, please leave it in the jar in the foyer or note “Hot Dogs” in the memo of your check. We hope to purchase hot dogs from Village Market (in Allegan) again this year as they’ve sold them around Memorial Weekend for 88¢ in the past.
« HELP NEEDED @ EVENT...It takes a lot of servants to make this event successful. We will need people to set-up, cook, serve, and clean-up. Watch for sign-up information to be coming soon!
