PRAY, PRAISE, AND GIVE THANKS: FAVORITE PSALMS OF GOD'S PEOPLE
led by Grace Gillespie every Sunday at 10:45 a.m. in room P206

The book of Psalms is a collection of 150 hymns that were inspired by God for the enjoyment and edification of his people. The Hebrew title of this book is tehillim, which means “Songs of Praise.” Martin Luther said that the 150 psalms could be arranged into five basic types of psalms: messianic, didactic, comfort, prayer and petition, and psalms of thanksgiving. We will meet in room P206.

COMING SOON:

Afraid: Demon Possession and Spiritual Warfare in America
led by Pastor Heckert every Sunday at 10:45 a.m. starting on February 12

Summoning demons, interacting with “ghosts,” holding séances … Occult practices have been on the rise over the last few decades here in America. The spirit that practitioners are attempting to contact, however, is never the one that actually answers. How can we break free from the despair and fear that such encounters can bring? How do we come to the aid of neighbors who are lost in Satan’s deceptions? How do we witness Christ to those who, unintentionally or not, worship the devil? In his book, Afraid: Demon Possession and Spiritual Warfare in America, Dr. Robert Bennett points us to the only way out: God’s grace, and the medicines He gives to His people in Christ Jesus. 

Join Pr. Heckert starting February 12 after service in the fellowship hall as we work through this book. In order to be good stewards of our finances, we ask that those who wish to participate in this study reach out to the church office no later than February 6 so we can order the proper number of books. See you there!
