CONNECTIONS

50 Days of Vibrant Community: Starting next Sunday, January 12, for seven Sundays, we will focus on creating and multiplying vibrant communities [small groups] in our congregation. It is our hope that 80% of our people who attend our worship service will make a commitment to be a part of a group and develop a vibrant faith in Jesus.

Imagine Heaven: What is heaven really going to be like? What will we look like? What will we do? Who will you bring with you to heaven? How will you live if you have heaven in your mind? We will find answer to these questions in E-7 at 11:30 a.m. This class will resume next Sunday.
