Small Groups Active in Summer
Though most of our Small Groups are taking a summer break many are still active in one way or another. I’d like to encourage yours to meet at least once or twice before they start back up in late August. Here are some ideas.

CURRENT MESSAGE
 
 

Transformed A Life Interrupted
Transformed is a series that will tell the story of the Apostle Paul.  Looking chronologically through events in Paul’s life and teaching we will draw information and inspiration about how we too can be transformed.

How does a young man of misguided passion and grit transform into a mature man of wisdom and grace?  How does a cold-blooded murderer become perhaps the greatest Christian leader ever known?

There is only one way:

He came face to face with the great transformer - Jesus Christ, the son of God.

This Sunday, July 5th, Greg Pickering, Lead Pastor, will be leading us in a message titled Saul's Next Step. Click the logo to the right to see what the rest of the Transformed series will hold.

Kenya 2009 TripJuly 2nd - 11th
Our 2009 Kenya team is on their way! Depending on when you read this, they will either be traveling to Houston to board the first of their flights or actually on the plane that will eventually bring them to Nairobi, Kenya and from there on to Endana and Segera. Please keep them in your prayers for travel safety and good health and that God will continue to condition their hearts and minds to be ready for all that He already has in store for them to experience.

To keep up with the team, please check out their blog at:

Please join the team as they share what and how God provided for them during their trip. Join us in the Worship Center from 7 - 8pm on the 15th. Childcare will be available on site.
