God is at work! 130 kids and 75 volunteers have been at VBS at church this week learning to say “Wow, God!” in amazement over how He has made us, loves us, and put in place a plan to rescue us!
Be sure to check out two great upcoming events that help support our Joni & Friends missions team – come this Saturday to the Ultimate Dance Thing III and kick-off summer with a live concert at Perks & Poets. Details below!
Praise & Prayer
We praise God for the families who come forward today to dedicate themselves to raise their children to know and love God all their days. As a church family, please encourage them by praying and coming alongside Chris, Amy, & Zachariah George and Tony, Sarah & Ethan Cavicchi.

What Hath God Wrought?
Pastor Jack challenged us to wrestle with God’s sovereignty and when things in life don’t turn out as we expect. Ecclesiastes 3:1-14 reveals that purpose and value cannot be found knowing and controlling God’s mysterious ways. Listen to “What Hath God Wrought?”
