May we focus confidently on the blessing of such a loving relationship as we worship God today. Please join us for refreshments in the Fellowship Hall after the morning worship service.
Friendship Register: During the first offering this morning,
please sign and pass the “Friendship” Register down the row.
Once it reaches the end and members and guests have signed,
please pass it back to the center.
This morning it is our joy to celebrate both profession of faith
and baptism. Clair Wynia will be received through her profession
of faith and Steve and Clair’s children, Kolton, Kamryn and Kinsley will be baptized. We will also celebrate the sacrament of baptism for Jace Gerrit, son of Chris and Ashley Hulstein. We praise
God for these families and pray for His richest blessings upon
them.
A warm welcome to Ron Brink as he leads our evening worship
