Weekly Update, March 7th, 2025
Hi Church,
As we enter March, our church will offer both a men's and women's retreat this month. These retreats are a tremendous opportunity to get to know others in the church and focus on an area of the Christian life. Both retreats are held locally at Camp Wabanna which makes them very convenient. If you have not done so already, please register for one of the retreats.
Daylight Savings Time
Daylight Savings time begins this Sunday so don’t forget to “spring forward” an hour before going to bed on Saturday.
Women’s Retreat
The retreat starts in one week! If you haven’t registered yet, please do that as soon as possible so we know how many to prepare for. Retreat registration is $60 and is open to all women, 9th grade and up. To get practical answers to questions about prayer, join us for our Annual Women's Retreat, March 14-15, at Camp Wabanna, in Edgewater. This year, our focus will be on "A Praying Life". We will learn to pattern our prayers on Jesus' style of prayer. Register now in the church app or at the Connect Center.
Prayer for Revival
Join us on Thursday, March 13 at 11am as we pray for God to bring true revival to our church and nation. We meet in room 112, downstairs and pray for an hour.
SonShiners Movie
The SonShiners (55+) will be watching the movie, The Forge by the Kendrick brothers on Thursday, March 20 at 1pm in the multipurpose room. Snacks, desserts, and drinks will be provided. Please sign up at the Connect Center.
New Women’s Bible Study
The new Women’s Bible study begins this week. Remember Me is a Bible study which focuses on and uncovers deep meaning in the Passover of the Bible. By studying the teachings God gave through the first Passover, we come to understand more fully the amazing sacrifice given for us through the blood of our Passover Lamb, Jesus Christ. Join us Tuesday mornings, Wednesday nights (with childcare) or Saturday mornings for this study that will help us understand our Lamb of God. Please sign up at the Connect Center or in the church app.

Family Devotion Book
Parents! We would love to give your family a 6-week family devotional for Easter & beyond called Easter Changes Everything. This book starts with the story of Easter and spends the next 6 weeks exploring WHY this moment in history mattered, HOW it changes eternity, and WHAT we should do in response. Our prayer is that this will be a tool for your family to establish a routine of family devotion time together. Please stop by the Child Check-In Desk to pick up your free copy!
Men’s Retreat
Leadership is absolutely essential to life and to advance the kingdom of God. Simply put, God has designed our world in such a way that leadership plays a huge role! Also, leadership is something that each person will have an opportunity to display so we should seek to cultivate our own passion and skills for leadership. At our men's retreat, Mark Dooley will be speaking about leadership.
The Men’s Retreat will be March 28-29 at Camp Wabanna in Edgewater, MD. Retreat registration is $60 and is open to all men, 9th grade and up. Please sign up at the Connect Center or in the church app.
Elevator and Lost & Found
Unfortunately, our elevator is out of order again. It will take some time to get it repaired.
Our Lost & Found is overflowing. Please stop by the table in the atrium to see if any of the items belong to you. There are a lot of water bottles and children’s jackets.
Blessings!
Pastor Bryan
