If you are here for the first time, we want to get better acquainted

withyou. To help us, please fill out the Connection Card in your

bulletin. At the end of today’sWorship Celebration, please pass it

We’re here today to show our appreciation to God as we worship. When you

go to a sporting event, you’ll observe various levels of involvement and

excitement. The same is true here. Some worship quietly as they sit; others

may worship more expressively clapping, singing loudly, standing or

dancing & using banners. Feel free to express your worship to Godquietly,

or very expressively, with joy or even tears.

The invitation to share in the Lord’s Supper is open to every believer in

Jesus Christ as well as to those who would like to become a believer.
