Did you see that? Will you grow, serve and give with us this fall?
Dear Family of God,
Did you see that? What an incredible day of celebration we had on Sunday’s Welcome Bash. What a joy to worship together as both campuses, to receive the word through Pastor Bryan Todd, to hear the testimonies of the baptized, to play together too! I encourage you to go back and listen to those testimonies again. Pray for those baptized and pray for more folks to surrender their hearts to God’s work!
HOW WILL YOU ENGAGE IN GOD’S WORK THIS FALL?
As we turn to the Fall, will you consider how you can engage in God’s work? We want you to grow with us in a small group, serve with us in a ministry and give with us to make a difference in this world. Check out the rest of this message for ways to grow, serve and give with us.
Watch the Bash Again!

I conclude this message with the theme verse for Nazarene Youth Conference and our memory verse for the last part of our Romans series:
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13
Overflowing with hope,
Pastor Josh and the Stillmeadow Team
