UPCOMING EVENTS
FALL SERIES - THE CHOSEN
JOIN A GROUP!
This fall, Pastor Joe will take us through a series on the popular TV show called The Chosen. This show is about the life of Jesus through the eyes of His disciples and it's life changing. To find the episodes, google 'The Chosen', it's available for free streaming.
By joining a small group during The Chosen series, you will find like-minded people to pull apart deeper meaning from the show and the Sunday messages. Small groups lead to deeper community and prayer support though life! Express you interest to the leadership team in the commons on Sunday or by signing up online.

DAYS FOR GIRLS
MON, SEPT 11 // 6:30 PM // ROOM 268
Are you looking for a service project or hands-on activity to do this fall? This group gets together to serve others by creating re-usable feminine hygiene kits that are sent around the world to women who may not have regular access to them. By creating re-usable fabric pads, this gives girls and women DAYS back into their lives to go to school and work instead of staying home while on their period.
Whether you are an expert at sewing or have never touched a sewing machine, we have a spot for you to help! No RSVP needed, join us when we meet on the 2nd Tuesday of each month.
