December Christmas Basket Ministry Project

Please be in prayer for the following upcoming missions trips. Your prayers make the difference in whether a trip is successful or not. Here is a list of the trips, and a little bit about what will be happening with each trip. New Zealand (Januar y 11-19) This team will work with Curtis and Mimi Estees and will primarily be focused on sharing the Good News of Jesus with elementary aged kids. Curtis and Mimi operate a Christian day care center, and this team will have the amazing opportunity to visit and share who Jesus is and how He can change lives. S e n e g a l ( J a n u a r y 1 3 - 2 1 ) Walking the streets, meeting with existing contacts, making new contacts, discipling new believers, and sharing the Good News of Jesus to this predominately Muslim nation is the agenda for this trip. S o u t h A s i a ( M a r c h 1 7 - 2 4 ) This team will aid the International Mission Board team already established in the city to seek out millennials from the millions of residents in this city who are interested in following Jesus. Once contacts are established, the team goes to work to continue to “water the Gospel Seeds”. Indianapolis (March Spring Break) This team will work with Nathan and Rachelle Shaver as they are planting Speedway Community Church in Indianapolis.

Led by Pastor Lynn Hyatt weekly Meets in the Chapel

Have you ever had a question in the middle of a sermon and wished you could just raise your hand and get an answer? Well, this is the class for you. Each week Pastor Lynn takes a topic or a book of the Bible and breaks it down into bite sized chunks that are easy to understand and apply to your life. And, if it doesn’t make sense to you, just ask a question.

Currently, Pastor is teaching on the call to be disciple makers.

The Chapel is the building with the 4 white columns and the double white doors.
