Monthly Capital Campaign – The September capital campaign is for Resonate Global missionaries, Anthony & Sara Sytsma. The Sytsma’s work mainly with churches from the Pentecostal Assemblies of God Uganda (PAGU) in the region surrounding Soroti, Uganda where they live. Anthony encourages and mentors pastors who face many challenges in ministry and who themselves need pastoral care. He also teaches leaders around Africa through a curriculum he helped to write called “Helping Without Hurting in Africa”, based on the book When Helping Hurts and focusing on how to help the poor in wise ways. Sara works in churches and communities to help farmers better care for their land, produce more food, save money, and connect the Christian faith to everyday life through Bible study and skills training. She facilitates farmer study groups on agriculture, caring for creation, and nutrition. She also teaches fuel-efficient and nutritious ways of cooking and occasionally does art classes for children. We will take the offering for the Sytsma’s on October 25th.
Fall Education Classes – Join us this fall for any of our education classes! Sunday School is immediately following morning worship with classes for Pre-K to Adult. Wednesday Family Night begins every week at 6:00 pm with dinner provided, followed by Bible study classes from Pre-K to Adult. The adults are currently finishing up I Corinthians and then will do a Life Guide study on the book of Revelation. Ladies’ Coffee Break meets every Thursday at 9:30 am and they are doing a Life Guide study on the book of Genesis. College age students are invited every 1st Thursday of the month for dinner and a Bible study at Bert and Heidi’s house at 6:30 pm. We encourage everyone to take advantage of these opportunities to grow in your knowledge and understanding of God’s Word while enjoying fellowship and building relationships with other believers. There is a place for everyone as we learn, grow, and walk together in faith!
