FOR FAMILIES WORSHIPPING WITH US
This week is a Family Worship Sunday!
Children and their families will worship in the sanctuary together! We have Children’s Worship Bulletins and crayons available for both older and younger kids. They are full of activities and coloring space to help our young worshippers connect with this morning’s worship and message!
The nursery will be open for parents who want to sit with their kids during the service but we won’t have volunteers working in there this week. Most of all, we want you to know how glad we are to worship with you and your family today! You are welcome here! (And come join us for a potluck lunch after the service!)

WEDNESDAY NIGHTS

Every Wednesday night, New Horizons offers ministry for adults, children and students, with Bible studies and groups specially designed for all of you! Pastor Kory and the adults are in the Conference Room and are currently looking more deeply at Sunday’s sermons on God’s work of Emotionally Healthy Spirituality. Pastor Elda meets with middle school and high school students in the youth room with a different theme and Bible study each night. Rhonda Heal meets with the children in the Fellowship Hall and leads a time of games and looking at what God wants to say to our kids. Everyone is welcome! Bring a friend!

40 Days of Prayer

We believe that prayer is powerful and effective (James 5:16)! So we want to spend some intentional time seeking God in prayer as a church family. From May 1 thru June 9, we are asking all who are part of New Horizons to join in prayer together. By April 21, you will receive a prayer guide that lays out one thing we will be praying about each day for 40 days. Will you join us? What might God do among us as we unite together in prayer? May God help We want to follow God's will for us as a church closely. Let's seek God together!
