sunday morning adult classes: Lifelabs
End Times & Jewish Feasts Sundays at 10:30am in rm 203
Throughout history many people have been interested in End Times, yet don’t have a good understanding of
what to expect... even Christians. This class will investigate God’s message of End Times to both the people of
the O.T. as well as the Church (that’s us) in the N.T. What do Jewish Feasts have to do with the End Times? We’ll
be learning about that and more in this class. There is no cost for this class.
This weekend: No Class (Have a Blessed Easter).
Next weekend: Feast of Weeks/Pentecost (Jesus united all believers in His Church).
