Children's Message:

  - "Catching Jesus" - Rev. Erik Allen

    - Have you ever tried catching something when you don't ecpect it? As Pastor Erik explains to the kids, it's not about catching Jesus. It's about being prepared to receive Him when He comes into our heart.


Message:

  - "Like a Thief…" - Rev. Erik Allen

    - We are reminded that Jesus comes like a thief in the night. But not a thief who steals, rather who breaks in and stays to set us free to live for the Kingdom of God.

Go in peace and serve the Lord!
