Create A Halloween Mission Tradition

Pumpkins

Our small group is full of wonderful people who have great ideas. One of our couples decided a few years ago to create an Pumpkin Party for their grandchildren.

Hear the Word

We gather for worship to praise God, to pray to Him, to sing His praises and to hear His Word proclaimed. After the worship service, for how long can you remember the teaching of the message or song? Taking notes during a message helps us focus on His message and apply His Truth in life. […]

Study The Word

Studying the Bible is another very important discipline or habit every Christian needs to develop. Studying God’s Word helps us to know the Author more closely and prepares us to lead others in greater Bible knowledge. When you study the Bible, get a notebook or use some electronic filing system such as Evernote to keep track […]
