Pavilion Dedication, A Cool Event!
Thank you to over 100 brave folks who stood in the cold weather with us last Sunday to prayerfully thank God for the pavilion and dedicate it to His service. And a special thanks to our Grill Masters — Charles Fowinkle, Bill Gwaltney, Rich Sox, and Jason Smith — for the delicious hamburgers and hot dogs. Everyone had a great time! We look forward to many more fellowship opportunities under the pavilion.
February in UpStreet & FirstLook
In February on UpStreet we’ll be talking about PEACE – proving you care more about each other than winning an argument. Our Memory Verse is Romans 14:19, “So let us do all we can to live in peace and let us work hard to build each other up.” The kids will learn about Isaac’s wells (Genesis 26), Jacob & Esau’s restored relationship (Genesis 25 and 33), Abigail’s peace offering to King David to save her husband (1 Samuel 25), and God’s choice to make peace with humanity through Jesus. For more information, view the Preview video: https://vimeo.com/58027902.
February is all about celebrating love! In FirstLook we’ll be teaching the children all about Ephesians 3:18 which says “How wide and high and long and deep is the love of Christ.” Can you measure it? That’s what we’re investigating this month! Can we even measure how much Jesus loves us? You and I know we can’t measure Jesus’ love. It’s way too big, but we’re going to have fun trying this month with our preschoolers as we celebrate the month of love by celebrating the One who loves us the most.
