Weekly Update (1/4 - 1/10)

I hope your first full week of 2010 is going well! With the new year, Charis is back in full-swing. Hope to see you this week!

This Friday
(Friday Fellowship, 7:30-9:30)
We're meeting at ENERY'S HOUSE this Friday to begin a bible study designed by Enery himself! As a part of his students in Seminary, he has created a 5-week hermanuetic study based on the various genres of the Bible. Anticipate a super great time.

This Sunday
(Connections Live!, 9:30-11:00, Chapel 2)
Pastor John is beginning a new series: Conversations with God. It'll be a series of sermons about prayer starting with the first message, "Why Talk to God?" I've noticed that more of you have been coming on time. I encourage you to continue doing so! Being there at the very start allows you to fully join into our corporate worship.

(Connections Study, 11:30-12:30, E10)
This is the Sunday you've all been waiting for! Connections Study is BACK! Pastor John is leading us through a 2-week course entitled Discovery 1.0. It'll be a good time of learning about Connections and will give you the chance to find out what's happening so you can integrate yourself as a member of Connections.
