SUMMARY:Red Bird Information 2022
DESCRIPTION:The Red Bird Mission is a place where lives are changed. The lives of the residents are changed when volunteers show up to fix what’s broken or make improvements to their living situation. And the lives of the volunteers are changed when they see how their presence and willingness to serve can have such a huge impact on others. \nThis year’s trip to the Red Bird Mission will take place from July 16-22\, and we want you to be a part of the team! The trip is open to everyone 14 and over. Registrations and deposits are due by March 15. \nPastor Dave will host an information session on February 20 at 11:30 to answer your questions and begin to make plans for this year. You can attend online or in person. We hope to see you there! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Online

SUMMARY:Sunday Worship
DESCRIPTION:Worship starts at 10 am. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBack in the 1990’s\, Dana Carvey entertained audiences with his Saturday Night LIve skit titles “Church Talk” featuring the church lady. In this alternate persona\, which sought to make light of the judgment people felt when they went to church\, the Church Lady pointed out those that she was certain were overcome by Satan and going to hell. Sadly\, Carvey’s character was not very far off from the judgment people often experienced from those who were supposed to be known more for their love than their condemnation. \nToday\, many questions remain about Satan and hell. People often make many assumptions about where someone stands in the eyes of God and how they will spend eternity based on observations they make about others. But is this what Jesus taught about hell? Can any of us really know? \nThis Sunday\, join us for worship and communion at 10 a.m. online or in person as we explore Jesus’ teachings about hell and learn a powerful lesson about grace. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn-Person: 10 Stillwater Road\, Blairstown\, NJ \nOnline: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Facebook Live\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Youtube

SUMMARY:Advent Study
DESCRIPTION:At Christmas we not only celebrate the birth of Christ\, but also the fact that God has come to dwell with us. But how do we connect with that presence and enable it to lead us\, teach us\, guide us\, and assure us? \nIn the 17th century\, Brother Lawrence\, a humble monastic cook\, discovered how to encounter God’s presence in his everyday mundane tasks\, and his reflections have become a classic in Christian literature. \nJoin us for a 4-week study of Brother Lawrence’s reflections along with scriptures that lead us to practice Emmanuel\, God with Us\, in our lives. The classes will be offered weekly in person and online on Wednesday’s at 6:30p and Friday’s at 11a beginning on December 1.
