If you have ever found yourself wondering, “What in the world is wrong with me?”, Paul has a helpful answer. In fact, this is the very question he asked about himself in Romans 7:15-25. And the answer he gives provides help and hope for every one of us in our own struggle to grow in grace.

Announcements
Congregational Vote: Pastoral Candidate Keith Lewis
Two weeks ago we announced Keith Lewis as our candidate for Executive Pastor of Administration and Operations, and provided several opportunities to connect with Keith and ask questions. If you were unable to attend Wednesday evening’s Q&A session you may view the recording HERE. To read Keith and Dawn’s personal salvation testimony, click HERE.
This Sunday, at the end of each service, we will hold a ballot vote on whether to bring Keith on as our Executive Pastor for Administration and Operations. All Full Members age 18 and older are eligible to vote (Watchcare members are not eligible).
For any other questions or concerns, please reach out to one of our pastors before the vote on Sunday.
Congregational Update
In addition to the Pastoral Candidate voting at the end of each service, we also have a congregational meeting taking place between services, where we will provide budget updates. Please plan to attend this meeting.
