The Journey

This Sunday we will start the four week stewardship education emphasis. We are going to be studying the handy little book that we distributed Sunday, "Take God At His Word." If you don't have a copy for your home, please see Pastor John so that you get one. We have enough for every household in our church! It is FREE!

We are also doing several other things.
1. Our kids and youth will be studying stewardship and giving this month too. In kids ministries and The Stand Youth, they will be collecting offerings for the First Fruits offering that will be on Celebration Sunday. This is going to be exciting!
2. Our prayer team will be presenting two ways to be involved in prayer in the next four weeks. Keep your eyes peeled for the "Friends Praying For Friends" opportunities. We need to emphasize taking time to pray for one another. Also, on April 3rd, we will start our fourteen days of prayer, which will end with a huge prayer gathering on Saturday, April 16th.
3. Our Communication team will be sending out the invitations to Celebration Sunday later this week. In those invitations you will find an RSVP for Celebration Sunday. We need a response so that we can plan for food. If you have only attended our church for one week, we still want you to be at Celebration Sunday! Absolutely everyone is welcome and urged to attend. Your life may be forever impacted and changed by attending Celebration Sunday!

Please remember, on Celebration Sunday we will receive a First Fruits offering to kick start The Journey. Then we will be collecting our faith commitments that the Lord will help us to give in the next three years of The Journey.
