"SUMMER SUNDAYS"
Adult Classes on Sunday Mornings
through August
Join us for a new
spirituality study series at
9:30 am on Sunday mornings, June 8 through August 24, in the Bryans
Room. The NOOMA
study is a series of short films on DVD, each of which uses our
experiences to teach
about the fullness of life by tackling issues such
as forgiveness, discipleship, and unconditional love. Each NOOMA DVD
has a one-word title and a 10- to 14-minute presentation about that
word given by Rob Bell, the founding pastor of Mars
Hill Bible Church, in Grandville, Michigan, one of the fastest
growing churches in American History. The name
NOOMA
is an English phonetic spelling of the Greek word
pneuma,
which is commonly translated to “spirit” or “breath.”
For the
Children:
This summer during the
Sunday School hour,
9:30-10:30 am, we will staff the computer room
on the third floor, and children will be able to use the computers
to fly a plane through Galilee, play
a 3D quiz game of the parables, enjoy a baseball game with Bible
Baseball, and follow Charlie Churchmouse and his Bible adventures.

For five mornings,
the children ages 3-5th grade enjoyed chapel, music, and arts &
crafts related to the parables of Jesus, all with a farm theme. They
made strawberry jam one day, they churned butter the next.
