Greetings Church Family -This weekend’s Deeply Rooted text is one which has inspired me, convicted me, and motivated me for decades. It’s the part of the Sermon on the Mount where Jesus describes how His followers ought to BE in the world. It’s the salt and light text...Jesus says: “You are the light of the world, the salt of the earth.” It’s some of His most robust instruction on what it looks like practically for Jesus’ followers to influence culture, engage the community, and live together as friends and family. What’s the ‘tenor’ of our witness in the world?The text is Matthew 5:13-16 – 4, New Testament verses which have shaped my life as much as any. I’m trying to look at this familiar passage with fresh eyes today, and I’m looking forward to sharing some new thoughts and ideas at our upcoming gatherings,Saturday at 6pm & Sunday at 10am. Hope you can be with us either online or in person.Greg Hochhalter | Lead PastorWe Care Food Drive!This weekend is the LAST FULL WEEKEND for our We Care Food Drive.We have a few HIGH NEED items:Peanut ButterBreakfast CerealCanned MeatRiceIf you'd like to see the full list of non-perishable items We Care accepts you can click here - we are grateful for whatever you can bring!Baptism Prep ClassIf you’ve been considering baptism as your next step in faith or you want to know why baptism is an essential next step in a believer's life – you are invited to attend one of our Baptism Prep Classes.Baptism Prep Classes will be offered after each service this weekend and October 21/22.
