If you’re visiting with us this morning we invite you to sit back, relax and allow God to meet you. We are an intergenerational family of imperfect people relying on God’s grace to love Him and others with His love. We are currently in the process of searching for a new senior pastor but our life and mission continues to thrive. The length of the worship service is generally an hour and fifteen minutes which includes contemporary music, traditional hymns, prayer, scripture-reading and a message. Please join us in singing or feel free to just observe and take it all in (please silence your cell phone). You will notice that the newsletter you’re holding has a perforated Connect Card. Please fill it out as everyone will be invited to place their card in the offering plate towards the end of the service. A small gift is available for you as you exit the inside sanctuary doors (west entrance). Getting Your Bearings First things first; the bathrooms are in the Atrium accessed down the steps through the front of the Sanctuary. If you have an infant or small child, there is a “cry room” in the back of the Sanctuary where you can still see and hear the service. The nursery (0-3 years) is also available. Children (potty-trained) are dismissed in the middle of the service for age-appropriate teaching in the Children’s Chapel (downstairs from Atrium). Join us from 9:40am-10:40am each Sunday morning in the Celebration Center for teaching for adults (Sunday school is offered for children and youth). Please visit the Welcome Center in the Atrium to meet some of our friendly hosts and to find out more about the church. As always, you can find us online at www.csgreeley.org. We are members of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church (epc.org). All Church Connect Take the Connect with you as a reminder to pray during the week. Talk to God as you read the items listed. Praise Him for the joys. Bring the mentioned people and events before His throne of grace.
