Open Wide Your Heart… to the Truth

Dear Church Family,

Many of us go to great lengths to strengthen and protect our physical hearts. We exercise. We want more of the good cholesterol and less of the bad—especially if we’ve got a family history of heart problems. It’s good to know that. We can try to eat the right kinds of fish or take special Omega 3 supplements to get those fatty acids that are supposed to help prevent cardiovascular disease. In general most of us would rather prefer to have our hearts healthy, right?

Absolutely. So why wouldn’t we go to the same lengths to protect our hearts spiritually? This weekend as we continue our series Saved to Saved we’re going to learn why this is so important as we apply to our own lives the words of the apostle Paul when he says, “Open wide your hearts.”

This weekend we will also mark some ministry milestones for some of our called workers and say farewell to some who will be moving on to different ministries next year in other states. So please join us for worship whether Saturday at 5:30 pm or Sunday at 9:30 am.

Note: On May 16, the CDC updated its guidelines for wearing masks. Therefore, at church we are no longer going to require people to wear masks. We encourage everyone to be informed of the CDC guidelines and to let Christian love inform their decision whether to wear a mask or not. For the time being we will continue to maintain our socially distant seating arrangement of chairs.

ICYMI: Watch Pastor Caleb’s message from last weekend about how the love of Christ transforms our lives and how we look at other people too.
