| | | | | God graciously established the priesthood among the people of God to be their mediator. Despite the purification rights, the holy garments, and the holy rituals, their service was always tainted because they were sinful men. So, how can we be assured that God hears us, forgives us, and understands us? Join us as we encounter a greater high priest who just so happens to be a king also.  |

| | | Who is the greatest? It’s a debate in sports circles, artist circles, fashion circles, and beyond. Even within the Scriptures, these debates are found: is Moses the greatest or is Abraham, is the law the greatest, or is grace even greater? On Sundays through May 11th, we will walk together through the book of Hebrews in a series called “Greater is He.” This book is a letter written to the church in Israel as they struggled to grasp the fullness of God’s victory in Christ. Chapter after chapter, we will see that Jesus is indeed greater than all things, all people, all promises. So join us by reading, worshiping, and being grounded in this eternal truth. Indeed, “Greater is He!” |

Come experience the Lord’s Prayer in a whole new way.  On your journey, you will use all five of your senses to learn more about the prayer Jesus taught.  There will be no physical guide along your path.  How you experience each step along the way is up to you.  However, there will be an M.A.P. of sorts for you to follow.  At each of the nine stations, there will be three things for you to do:  M – meditate, A – an activity, and P – Prayer. Â
The Prayer Journey will be open from 9 AM – 3 PM with timed entry slots available every 20 minutes. You are free to move at your own pace, either individually or as a family.  All ages are welcome.  Come and join us.  You won’t regret it. |
