FALL WORSHIP SERIES | #LOVELIKEJESUS

Love isn't just something you feel - Love does. Love acts in ways that brings healing, wholeness and restoration. Love can lead the way to a better life. Join us for a fall worship series that studies examples of Jesus' love from the Gospel of Luke!

This series will include a weekly Bible reading challenge that will take us through the entire Gospel of Luke in 6 weeks. Plus, we'll be engaged in community-wide Acts of Kindness during the month of October! Come worship, study, grow and LOVE with us! Begins September 19!

Masks are encouraged for indoor worship, no matter your vaccination status, to protect unvaccinated children under 12 and immunocompromised individuals.

Part of the #LOVELIKEJESUS series goal is to focus the strength of our congregation like never before in order to produce positive change in our families, our circles of influence and in the wider community so that our little corner of the world begins to look more on earth like the kingdom of heaven!

To go along with our daily acts of kindness challenge during the month of October, we've designed a t-shirt with the hashtag #LOVELIKEJESUS so that you can wear these as a living, walking example of loving-kindness!

Shirts are available to purchase online from P&M Apparel in Polk City now through Sept. 24th so that we can have them ready to wear in October! Short-sleve and long-sleve shirts are available in a range of sizes for children, youth & adults!
