Please join us this Sunday, July 24th, at our 8:15, 9:30 and 11:00 am Worship Services.  

Our Pastors continue the sermon series: “We Believe.”

Pastor Dan will be preaching at all 3 Worship Services on “Forgiveness of Sin.” (Luke 7:36-50)

“Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven-for she loved much. But he who is forgiven little, loves little.”And he said to her,”Your sins are forgiven.”Then those who were at the table with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this, who even forgives sins?”And he said to the woman,”Your faith has saved you; go in peace.” (Luke 7:47-50)
