Alana is doing well and the waiting is underway. Watch our Facebook page and this blog for the announcement when the arrival occurs.

Here is the planned order of worship.  
We make our plans, but God has the last word!  We will using the iworship clips to assist our worship today. The clips below are the ones we plan to use during worship tomorrow. 




We begin with a welcome and time of celebration for Pastor Jordan and Alana in the birth of their daughter.  Then we join in prayer; and stand to offer our praise to God in song:

  




We take a few moments to greet one another and enjoy a time of connection with our church family and new friends!  On this Memorial Day weekend we also pause to remember the price paid for our freedom.  Here is my favorite Memorial Day tribute:

We continue in our worship by bringing our tithes and offerings to the Lord.



And we now draw our attention to the preaching of the Word of God.

CHANGE IN THE 

NEW NORMAL       

Galatians  Chapter 5

Becoming a Christian takes our entire lives. There was a point in the past when we started following Jesus, but it takes a lifetime to become more like him. We tend to get frustrated when we grow slowly. If being a believer is a new normal, why does it seem to take so long for us to change? The truth is, change happens every day, little by little. We will look tomorrow at four ways change happens in the New Normal! 

 I hope you will read Galatians Chapter 5 before you come to church tomorrow.

Now - give a phone call to that person you should invite to church tomorrow........
