Digital Bulletin
November 8th, 2026
This week Pastor Tom begins a new series, "Redeemed: A Study In Ruth". It's always a gift to see Jesus through the Old Testament.
We also have an exciting update for the Harvest Offering and our audio / video improvements.
Don't forget Forged Men's Ministry is tomorrow night, the Experiencing God study is Tuesday night, and the Ladies Bible Study is Thursday morning!
Is it your first time here?
First, welcome. We are so glad you are here. Please fill out the digital connect card at the link below.
If you have children, we have nursery available for children birth - 3 years of age. The nursery is located off of the Foyer. We also have Children's Church. Students 4 years old - 4th grade will be dismissed for Children's Church before the sermon. The classroom is through the NW sanctuary doors.
Communion, we partake in this as a weekly reminder of the sacrifice that Jesus Christ made for use n the cross. If you are a believer, we invite you to join us during this time. You may take the emblems as they're passed or in your own time.
Offering, we use the tithes and offering that the Lord blesses us with to support the work of our local church and worldwide missions. There is a drop box in the back as you come in. If you are a guest we do not want you to feel obligated to give. If that is something the Lord has laid on your heart the gift is welcome. You can give when the offering plate is passed or at the link below.
