Last Sunday: We celebrated Jesus' presense among us but ALSO the opportunities and challenges that suggests, all under the text about Zacchaeus - who had Jesus over as his dinner guest - and was never the same... ____________________________________________________________________

Christianity 101 This course, written by me (Pastor Al), is designed to be an introduction to or review of Christian doctrine, and it is ALSO used as a Membership Class. I like to do this PERSONALLY rather than in a formal "class" setting, so that it can be "customized" and so that discussion is a bit freer. There is NO fee or obligation or expectations whatsoever. I LOVE to discuss these things (I have a doctorate in it) and appreciate the opportunity. If interested, let me know. ____________________________________________________________________________ Bible Studies! We deeply encourage everyone to participate in at least one study! If none seems helpful or none is offered at a time that works for you, talk to the Pastor. We'll do our best to begin new studies on subjects and at times that work for you. We currently offer three: Wednesday, 6:60 pm @ Pastor's home (dinner included); Understanding ISLAM! Thursday, 9:30 AM, church. The Book of Acts. Sunday, 9:15 AM, church. "The COMFORT of the Gospel for Real Lives" ____________________________________________________________________________
