September 9th, 2022 ANNOUNCEMENTSGroup Open HouseGroups matter because it invites you into a place of deep community where you are known, loved and encouraged to grow in your walk with Jesus.We know community begins when we move from sitting in rows, to doing life in circles together.On September 17 & 18, immediately after each service we want to invite you to our Groups Open House hosted in the atrium, where we want to help you journey into deep community. If you’re new and unconnected, we want you to find out about our medium sized group, called ‘Connections’. It is a safe entry point that takes you on a 4 week journey with others who are wanting to find community for the first time or willing to try again.Child DedicationThere is no manual for raising kids, but God has given us something far better - the Holy Spirit, and community. Child Dedication is a way to acknowledge our dependence on the leadership and guidance of the Holy Spirit as we do our best to be an example and lead our children into a relationship with Jesus. Register here by September 11 to have your child dedicated during one of our September 24/25 services.ReconnectSenior's Connect is back!
