This Past Week…

John's readers wanted assurance, so he writes to remind them of what Jesus' death and resurrection have achieved, who they are as a result, and why they need not fear. Our prayer is that you find the same certainty after studying this letter, written ‚ "that you may know that you have eternal life" (1 John 5:13).

‌Application Questions:

Do I believe He loves me solely because He chooses to? How might this change my life if I truly believed it? ‌
What are the ways my community group and discipleship group can spur me on into deeper faith and understanding? How can I grow in my knowledge of God? ‌
What are the things in my life — good or bad — that need to be pruned or eliminated altogether so I can properly abide with Lord Jesus? ‌
Do I see a pattern or practice of righteousness in my life? What would others say about this? ‌

Announcements

**MAY:**
**Diaper and Wipe Drive**

Every year in May, we take time to raise awareness of issues related to foster care and acknowledge the parents, family members, foster parents, child welfare and related professionals, and other members of the community who help children and youth in foster care find permanent homes and connections.
**All month long we will be collecting diapers and wipes for our county.** *Please drop off items in the Fellowship Hall.*

Kids Moment

NEW CURRICULUM!

We will be switching our Mission Kid’s curriculum to The Gospel project.

Every week, kids will experience the good news of the gospel through a Bible study that is:

Christ Centered: It’s all about Jesus, and every story points back to Him.

Heart Transforming: This study is designed to encourage true transformation that comes only from the gospel, not from behavior modification.

Age Aligned: Each week, every participant—from preschoolers to adults—can study from the same section of Scripture.

Chronological: All age levels study the narrative of the Bible in order, from Genesis to Revelation.

Theologically Rich: All studies are presented in an age-aware manner, and every session is doctrinally sound and thorough.

Missionally Minded: Every session calls participants to respond by sharing and living out the gospel.

Upcoming

May 20th. 10AM-12PM

Meet in the Fellowship Hall, bring a brunch item to share. We will come together for a morning filled with meaningful discussions centered around the important topic of foster care.

We will also hear from two special guests whose work is to help foster, kinship and adoptive families in our area.

This will be the last Mission Women before we combine with the men for the summer.
