Message From Pastor Bob Huisman

9:30 AM Morning Worship
This Sunday, we gather to worship our Triune God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  We conclude our series, Living the Good Life, Old Testament Wisdom and Poetry.  For a few weeks, we are exploring the books of Proverbs and Ecclesiastes.  This week we seek to discern the melody of the greatest song ever – The Song of Solomon – The Song of Songs.  Many have wondered what a love song is doing in the Bible.  What does it mean?  We hope to find out together.  When you see the connection of the Song of Songs to the rest of the story of the Bible, it will give you hope.

Reminder: Bring a non-perishable food item for those living with hunger or food insecurity.   Place it on the table in the Fellowship Room.

5:00 PM – Evening Worship
This holiday weekend is a Family Day and we will not gather for evening worship.

Thank You for your Gifts, Tithes, and Offerings
Thank you for your generosity to Christ’s Church.  We encourage you to prioritize your local church in your giving because the local church is the bride of Christ, and Jesus is the hope of the world.  We excel in the grace of giving when we honor God with our time, our treasures, and our talents.

Pastor Bob Huisman
Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.
And over all these virtues put on love, 
which binds them all together in perfect unity.  Colossians 3:12-14
