Small Group 9/5

As we continued our study of Romans this week, we were taught God gives grace not on the basis of works but by His choice. This fact was exemplified through his dealings with Israel. Even though Israel was an obstinate and disobedient people, God did not totally reject them. Instead, He chose to use their failures to bring salvation to the world and bring Israel to repentance.

We continue with Romans next week. Chefs Gracie and Justin will do the honors. Ben will lead us in worship. This week will also conclude the Impact classes for Harvest Crusade. Check out the Harvest Crusade website for final dates & locations.

That's all for now. Have a fun and safe Labor Day weekend!

Small Group 8/29

So I hope the unexpected break was used to catch up on memorizing verses. You never know when there could be a pop quiz! Things will be the same for this week. Dinner will be provided by chefs Jeff and Tak. Worship will be led by Ben. See you all on Tuesday!

Small Group 8/22

Thanks to chefs Will and Paul, we enjoyed some tasty stewed pork and potatoes, as well as a frosty pineapple cocktail. Delicious! For the rest of the evening, we engaged in a (friendly) competition of Cranium. Congratulations to team Sam, Gracie, Anne, and Will who brought their A-game in performing arts, trivia, and creativity to defeat the playing field. And thanks to all who came out and participated.

This week we will continue our study of Romans. Chefs Jeff and Tak will provide dinner and worship will be led by Ben.

Harvest Impact classes continue through the month of August. The second round of sessions will begin this Friday Aug 18th. For more info contact Gracie or visit www.harvestcrusades.org. That's all for now. See you all on Tuesday!

Wild Card Night 8/15!!

On full stomachs of great breakfast food, we were reminded to always seek to bring the good news of Jesus Christ to others. As this week comes to a close, continue to reflect on Romans 10:14-15 as you go through your daily tasks. And for those of you up for the challenge, Jeff will reward those who memorize this passage (remember the tiramisu)!

This coming week will be a wild card night (mandatory, not optional)! It will be a time of friendly competition and fellowship, so come out and have fun! Dinner will be provided by chefs Will & Paul. Bring whatever games you would like to play. It's always great to have options.

Lastly, pray about Harvest Crusade. There are IMPACT classes throughout the month of August. For more info, go to www.harvestcrusades.org OR contact Gracie.

That's all for now. Take care and God speed!

Romans 10:14-15

How are we spreading the good news today? With our words, our actions, our prayers or our love? Or something else? Read and reread those words. Encourage each other to remember each day. Encourage us to go out and be strengthened and empowered to do His will.
