Hope you’re having a fantastic day!!
Plan to join us this Sunday, January 15th as we begin a NEW four-part message series on JONAH. When many people hear the name JONAH, they immediately think of the Old Testament guy who was swallowed by a great big fish (or was that Geppetto). Okay, that’s what I usually think about when I hear the story of JONAH. However, over the course of several weeks of study, I’ve discovered that – to me – the book of JONAH is one of the most fascinating books in the entire Bible. So, over the next four Sundays, take some time to read through the book of JONAH (it’s just four chapters) and plan to join us each Sunday of the series for some awesome insights from this Old Testament chracter. By the way, there is a message outline attached to this e-update for your convenience. Take the time to print it off and bring it along to church with you this Sunday: Jonah (Part 1)
There will be no AMPLIFY youth ministry this weekend due to the holiday weekend. We will plan to resume next Sunday, January 22nd!! Oh yeah, a big THANK YOU to everyone who came out for “The 5th Quarter” this past Sunday night and to our generous hosts, Rob and Patti Lewis, for making our evening so special (awesome snacks!!)!!!
