ENGAGE God, ENGAGE with other believers, and ENGAGE His heart for your campus . . . in the name of Christ.

Youth Fatal Distractions Bible Study to Begin
In today’s pop culture the term “sin” is not very popular.  Instead, we are classified as victims of dysfunction who make “mistakes” and “bad choices.”  From contemporary psychologists to TV talk show hosts, the message we often hear is “I’m okay and you’re okay.”  But, the Bible gives a very different message – we have a serious sin problem that will destroy our lives from the inside out.  The good news is that Christ offers a solution to the battle from within.  We don’t have to be victims.  Instead, He can turn our lives away from these “Fatal Distractions.”
If you are a youth and would like to participate in this study that makes a frontal assault on these seven deadly sins that threaten to destroy our lives, please contact the church office.  We will meet on Thursday evenings beginning on October 1 at 7:00 pm in Mary Prevatt’s home.  For more information, please contact Mary Prevatt. 

First Place Bible Study
A new First Place Bible Study will be held on Monday evenings beginning September 14, 2009.  This Bible study incorporates daily study, weekly meetings, prayer, nutrition, exercise, fellowship and support.  Approximately 30 minutes of exercise will be offered at 6:15 pm.  This will be followed by Bible study.  To sign up for this study, please contact the church office.  For more information, please contact Anita Gogola.
