This Sunday we are not only celebrating Mother's Day, but also have Family Worship together with all the children (JK-Gr. 12).
Parents of children in Sunday Schools: Instead of dropping off your children at their classes, please have them join the service in the Immanuel chapel with you at 9:30! Children in grades 5 and under will be dismissed after the praise, while those in grades 6 and up will remain until the end.
Please pray and prepare to hear God’s word as Pastors Susan and Charles will preach on Sunday from Mark 10:17-31.
We look forward to singing and hearing God’s word together, and connecting with one another to be encouraged and strengthened in our faith.
It is truly a blessing to have our newly elected elder and deacons installed during a special joint ordination service next week.

Is there objective morality? What function does God’s Word serve? Does scripture reveal the truth? Can we know the truth, or is what we deem to be the truth mere subjectivism? What does God’s word say about culturally held moral positions such as the role of men and women; questions concerning divorce & remarriage; and the much-debated topic related to homosexuality and questions surrounding gender issues?
These classes will dive into both the philosophical and the practical. Through taking these classes, one will learn a basic method of bible interpretation, along with acquiring first-hand experience dealing with biblical passages that challenge our culture’s moral values. The four classes will begin on April 28 and take place in Room #312 at 11:15 am.
