Jesus is a different kind of Teacher, producing a different kind of disciple, with a different kind of ministry.
Who is Jesus?
GOD, SON & SAVIOR
More than just a prophet, high priest, man or teacher.
And he calls us to follow him.
Willing to turn away from our former lives and not look back.
Willing to become like him.
Willing to participate in the ministry he began in this earth.
Are you willing?

COMMUNION
We would like to invite anyone who has professed faith in Jesus to participate in receiving communion with us this morning.
Communion elements will be passed out by our ushers towards the close of service.
The bread represents the body of Christ.
The juice/cup represents the blood of Christ.

https://www.biblestudytools.com/BAPTISM
Are you ready to be baptized? In the Bible, when people come to faith in Christ, and they ask "what do I do now?" the answer is consistently baptism. In baptism, we identify with Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection as we lay down our lives in the water, and come to new life in Christ. If you believe Jesus is Lord and are ready to make that declaration in your life, sign up and we would love to baptize you.
