Making a promise to raise our kids in a home where they can grow in a deep relationship with God is a huge way of showing them how much we love them and want only the best for their life. Not only is this a huge honor, but it is also a calling from God. (Deuteronomy 6:6-7, Proverbs 22:6)
High School Winter Retreat
High School Students!!!
Join us for a weekend retreat in the Santa Cruz Mountains with your friends!
God invites us to "be still and know that I am God." And yet, in our hurried, fast-paced, anxious world, we often struggle to simply be. We forget that we are made to be– to be human, to be connected to one another, to be more than our accomplishments and less than our mistakes, to be alive, to be loved. At our Winter Retreat, we'll invite high school students to slow down, refresh their souls, and step into that sacred invitation of the Psalms: to truly be.
3RD GRADE MILESTONE
On Sundays, January 28 through February 18, we will be having a special four-week class for all 3rd graders to help them learn the big story of the Bible as well as how to navigate scripture. This class will occur during our regular worship service times. We hope to make this fairly easy on your end - all you need to do is plan on coming to services during your regular times on Sundays and have your 3rd grader bring a Bible with them. If your student does not have a Bible, we will have one available for them to use during the class.
Our hope and prayer is that this class will be a spiritual milestone in your child’s life that helps them grow into lifetime disciples of Jesus Christ. We hope you will make plans to attend this special class each week.
