From Pastor Shaw 10/30

Posted in From the Pastors on Sunday, October 30th, 2011


We are excited about our children’s worship services this weekend with the Borliks. They will be leading children’s worship in the gym this morning and here in the main service tonight. Let’s all rally together and support our children as they worship.

There has been an exceptional amount of circumstances in our church community involving illness and personal struggles. The intensity of these struggles is more than coincidental. I feel there is spiritual resistance against our church, and I am asking that we join together in prayer and fasting for the next two weeks. We will overcome by God’s grace!
