Please pray about joining us this fall as we learn how to drive out our enemies from the book of Judges.
Judges - Driving Out Your Enemies
Nothing has changed from the days of the Judges - people still do what is right in their own eyes.
Absolutes are shoved aside and the result is bondage to sin. Only God's truths and moral principles bring peace and
freedom from bondage.
Child Care is available! For more information please contact Kathleen Esterly at (360) 432-0656

SUMMER "GET INVOLVED" OPPORTUNITIES
Our Children’s Ministry Team of Sunday School teachers have done a fantastic job faithfully investing in your children this past school year. During the summer, many of them will be taking some time away from Sunday ministry, resting in preparation for the fall.
In order to give them a break, we are asking those who don’t regularly volunteer with our Children’s Ministry to prayerfully consider GETTING INVOLVED for a few hours of service in our Sunday School this July and August.
First Contact: For many, our Children’s Ministry is
the first contact young families
will have with our church.
Friendly greeting and exceptional
care for their children
will be an encouragement
to return the following week!
Teaching Children about God may be one of the most important jobs you ever do. When you serve in Children’s Ministry, you are being entrusted with the most important (and vulnerable) members of our church family. There is no greater treasure on this side of heaven than the little ones God has given us. Your service in Children’s Ministry allows parents to focus on worship, rather than worrying about their children. In a very real sense this ministry makes it possible for our Pastors to fulfill their ministry.
Will you prayerfully consider serving
in Children’s Ministry for a few Sundays this summer?
Please contact Lynn for information and dates if you are interested in serving Jesus in this way!
