UPCOMING SERVICES
Next Sunday, April 17th
We welcome the GEMS as they share their theme and help lead in worship. The theme this year is based on Psalm 119:105 “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” The focus is “Choose Truth” by getting into God’s Word and applying it to your life. Pastor Mike will lead the service.
CHURCH OFFERINGS
Today’s offering is for World Renew, Refugee Sunday. Imagine being forced to leave your home and your country due to war, violence, or other danger. In our world today, millions of people are faced with this difficult reality. In 2015, World Renew and partners sponsored 184 refugees to come to Canada—and requests continue to flood in from refugees around the globe. Today, churches are asked to hold an offering for the refugee office; the funds will be used by World Renew to assist and support churches and other groups wishing to sponsor refugees.
Next Sunday’s offering will be for GEMS Girls’ Club program. The GEMS (Girls Everywhere Meeting the Savior) ministry continues to grow and reaches out to girls in over 950 churches and Christians organizations throughout North America and the world. The GEMS ministry relies on your faithful support. Thank you for your continuous prayers!
