Camp Concern is almost here! There are brochures available on the table in the foyer. Information is also available online.
SCRIPTURE OF THE MONTH
“…for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:11b-13 ESV)
When are times you have been brought low? When have you abounded in life? How are your spiritual and physical selves experiencing similar things at those times? Different things?
FREE BIBLES
We have several paper Bibles to give away. If you or someone you know needs a Bible, feel free to take one from the table in the back.
