Greetings Family Church – 

This Sunday, September 16th, we begin our new teaching series, “Questions I Have For Jesus”.  In our frenzied rush through life, we rarely slow down long enough to ask ourselves why we do what we do.  In this series I will take the time to do just that.  Over the next several weeks, we’ll discover that the amazing life God has in store for us is often just one question away.  You are not going to want to miss any of the following messages:

  • Why I…Exist
  • Why I…Hurt
  • Why I…Question
  • Why I…Trust

Please join us this Sunday and don’t forget to bring someone to church with you as many people around us are asking these same questions.

Blessings,

Pastor Virgil
