Week of January 12, 2025

Even though it was far from apocalyptic, Pastor Chris's sermon this past Sunday put me to mind of a familiar scene from the only New Testament book devoted (mostly) to prophesy.   If you haven't seen last week's sermon, it's highly recommended!  you can watch it any time; just click here.  
As to the aforementioned Biblical scene...

Missions Committee Update:  The Missions Committee is pleased to announce an upcoming visit by Adult and Teen Challenge New Hampshire, a Christ-centered program for people struggling with drug and alcohol dependency, on Sunday, January 19, 2025. Our visitors will include staff and several men currently participating in the program.
