A Note from Pastor Shelly

Growing in God

“Show me your ways, O LORD, teach me your paths; guide
me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long.” -- Psalm 25:4-5

Mark your calendars! Sunday School begins the first weekend after Labor Day, (the first Sunday we are back to regular worship schedule) Sept. 7th, at 9:45 AM. As a Christian and in life in general, learning never ends. And learning about God is the best knowledge of all, because it isn’t just “knowledge,” it is growing in our relationship with God, a relationship that is the strength and guide and foundation of our lives. As the psalmist prays, we too pray, teach me your paths, O Lord, guide me in your truth . . .
for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.

As the Sunday School year begins again and as many of us get back into a routine after summertime travel or vacation, consider what ways you will be led further into knowing God’s paths and truth this fall. We have a variety of Adult education and Bible Study classes throughout the week (Wednesday morning Bible Study with Pr. Clark, God Pause, Christ Care small groups, WELCA Women’s groups). On Sunday mornings there are Sunday School classes for
ages 3 years through High School. For parents, grandparents,
and all who care for or about children, there is a Sunday morning parenting discussion class using Dr. Kevin Leman’s parenting series. In addition to these education opportunities, we continue to work to expand our Christian Education opportunities: Stay alert for news about a regular Wednesday night dinner and education opportunity!

Thankful to be growing in God with you,

Pastor Shelly
