Wednesday 4/20 -  Wednesday Evening Program at the Fellowship Hall- Bro. Rob Parker, who is responsible for the LARC imitative through Gateway Woods, will be speaking in lieu of Wednesday evening services.  Bro. Rob had a challenging youth and has a beautiful testimony of how God used brothers and sisters to reach out and touch his life.  His topic will help believers to reach out to the “unchurched” for God’s glory as he shares how we can grow gracefully in the work of discipleship and evangelism.  We have scheduled this presentation on an evening already set aside for our Bible Class Worship on Wednesday so that they will also be able to attend the presentation.  We encourage you to have your children attend as Bro. Rob will share how satan can take one down a terrible pathway if we allow him to do so.
