May 11th: Handling Toxic Family Members

This Sunday. Join us for our weekly worship experience on Sunday, May 11th, at 10:30 a.m. at Millard West High School.

 

 

 

Toxin - A poisonous substance that is produced by living cells or organisms and is capable of causing disease when introduced to others.

 

Do you have difficult people in your family?

Do you struggle on how to deal with them?

 

This Sunday morning Craig will share with us four prayers we can pray to help us deal with difficult family members. And, it's a Mother's Day celebration. What a great day for us to learn about creating, developing, and maintaining healthy family systems.

 

Join us for this three-week exploration as Craig shares with us about what the Bible says on decontaminating difficult people in our lives without using weapons or duct tape.

 

May 18th -- Handling Toxic People @ Work

 

Each Sunday The Frog Pond (Sunday School for kids 3 years old to 6th grade) and The Little Frog Pond (a nursery for newborns through 2 year olds) are open from 10:00 a.m. until after worship is over (usually about 11:40 a.m.). We have a state of the art paging system for parents. Kids love The Frog Pond!

Kids

Jesus Loves Children and So Do We

 

 

 

Each week more and more of God's children are being developed in The Frog Pond. Kids from birth to two years old go to The Little Frog Pond (they will love our new nursery at Millard West) and kids three years old to sixth grade go to The Frog Pond where they will learn and grow with other students their age.

 

The Bible is brought to life and presented to kids in a way that they can understand and in a way that is fun! Parents are encouraged to serve once a month, in an area they feel comfortable, to help this ministry flourish and continue growing.

What to Expect on Sunday Morning

As you enter the worship space you can sit on chairs that are set up in rows near the stage or they can sit around circular tables that are set up in the back of the worship space. The tables fill up fast, so if that is your thing get there early!

 

  

Here is what will happen:

  • You will eat really good food and drink really good beverages.
  • You will laugh a lot.
  • You will love the music.
  • You will feel comfortable from the moment you enter the building.
  • You will be challenged and encouraged.
  • You will meet some really great people.

Actual comments from first-time guests:

  • Our kids had so much fun.
  • I felt at home the moment I entered the building.
  • We loved the music. It definitely wasn't what we expected.
  • The pastor was entertaining and very insightful. I enjoyed listening to him.
  • I didn't know you could drink coffee during church.

Ask questions. Seek. We believe you’ll find what you’re looking for. You’ll learn how to relate to God. You’ll experience Christian community. And here’s the big thing—you will change. Join us as we seek God together. Just come as you are.
