Join us on September 15 as Rev. Dr. Craig Alwin leads us in 9 am Outdoor Worship in the church pavilion. We will begin our fall worship with our Kick-Off Sunday “F.R.O.G. – Fully Rely on God.” The sermon will focus on “F.R.O.G. – Setting Our Minds on Divine Things.”
Following worship, you can check out the Sunday School area, make a guess on some guessing jars, take in a “special treat” from the Loving Team, and get to know each other through human bingo. At 10:45 am Pastor Craig will share information on the upcoming book study, “Slow Church.” And at 11 am we will announce the winners of the guessing jars and human bingo. It will be a fun-filled morning.
PYA will meet at 11:30 am for lunch and fellowship followed by a walk with residents of the Woodlands at 1 pm.
