Discipleship 101
Sunday 9:30
A new adult discussion group will be starting Sept. 14 at 9:30 in West Wayside. Join us as we try to figure out what it means to follow Christ in today's world. The first topic is spirituality, a word that is used today in pop culture and religious circles. But what is spirituality? What does spirituality look like in the Bible? Can people be spiritual but not religious? All are welcome to join this discussion.

Good Friday Event


Jesus Is Our Savior

Poke Run Church shared the story of Jesus Christ's redeeming love with a special Good Friday program for children. This fun-filled day included a Jerusalem marketplace that featured pottery making, crafts and even some candy recipes that Jesus and his disciples may have tried!

Students heard the Bible descriptions of Jesus and acted out parts of Jesus ministry in a special drama center. The day ended with a seder meal, a time when families gather around the table on the night of Passover to read the story of the Israelite exodus from Egypt.
