What's new?

When someone asks you, "What's new?" they don't expect you to hand them a newspaper and figure out for themselves what is new. They want to know what's been happening, what's worth talking about. More often than not, we come up blank. But as you get to know Jesus, you'll find that your life will be infused with newness -- a newness that breaks through our complacency and our old habits. When Jesus stepped onto the stage one Sabbath Day early in his ministry, the people were amazed to hear a "new teaching." Are you ready for something new? Then join us this Sunday, Feb 28 at 10:00 a.m.

Believe!

It's a spiritual awakening! No, it's a revival! No, it's... the Olympics??? Everywhere you look, you see it - emblazoned on billboards and t-shirts: Believe! It's great to be talking about faith matters, and believing in our country during the winter Olympic games is something worth celebrating. But when the Olympics are over, will you still believe? If you put your faith in Jesus, you can anticipate a great and glorious day, better than any gold medal win - it's the Day of the Lord, and it's coming soon. Join us this Sunday, Feb 21 at 10 a.m. We're looking at Joel 2 and Acts 2.

The Royal Treatment

I hope you get the royal treatment this Sunday, but even better, I hope you treat others royally. That doesn't always come naturally for us. In the book of Judges there is a refrain that goes like this: In those days there was no king in Israel; people did whatever they felt like doing. Of course, the result was chaos. We need a king. And we have one; he is Jesus Christ. When we follow him, we can anticipate God's royal treatment. Join us this Sunday, Feb 14, Valentine's Day, at 10 a.m.

Men at work

The men were on dishes-detail after Sunday's soup 'n' sandwich lunch at Lucknow Community Christian Reformed Church: Greg, Gerry, Hank, Spike. Good work guys!

Mom to Mom

Our new Mom to Mom group started meeting a few weeks ago. The moms get together to share stories and talk about their joys and challenges. The group meets on Wednesday mornings at 9:30 a.m. at the Church. The moms pictured here include (front row) Stephanie, Mandy, Cheryl, Ronda, Joanne, (back row) Patricia, Alicia, Julie, and Christine. More moms (and their little ones!) are welcome to join anytime.

Derk's baptism

Yesterday we had the privilege of witnessing the baptism of Derk Adrian Askes. And what a privilege- to see with our very eyes God's grace extended to this new baby. Congratulations Alicia & Trevor!
