On Sunday, May 20, at 9 am, six young adults from our community of faith will confirm their faith in the God the Father, Son & Holy Spirit. And we will proclaim again the promises of the Triune God we worship (three-in-one): Father in heaven, for Jesus’ sake, stir up in this young man/woman the gift of Holy Spirit: confirm their faith, guide their lives, empower them in their serving, give them patience in suffering, and bring them to everlasting life. Amen.
I’ve attached a picture of my confirmation. How different will it be this Sunday?

Honoring H.S. seniors tomorrow!
Between services, the amazing history of our Tanzania partnerships from Don & Eunice Fultz — a delightful hour!
Presented at 9 & 11:15 am, hear the story of how one small boy’s sharing of two fish and five loaves of bread fed a large crowd because of the power of Jesus! ALSO, we will have a bake sale between services to raise money for Merrick Community Services–our local food shelf.
