EXCITING NEWS TODAY:
Our Fall Retreat Speaker was just announced!
Back By Popular Demand - ALANA GROTEWOLD


"Alana is not only a wonderful friend of mine, but one of my favorite role models of Biblical Womanhood. She communicates biblical principles with clarity, passion, humor and grace. It is clearly evident that she loves people and wants to see them walk in spiritual freedom."

Alana’s significance to our Fall Retreat can not be overstated. She proclaims the Word of God. She is the model of what Jesus can do in women’s lives. In a sense, she is the Lord’s representative, speaking on His behalf to woo women into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and to build up those who already know Him. The speaker sets the tone of our Fall Retreat, making it an inspiring God-glorifying experience!

Alana is very successful in business so people from all across America….seek her financial council. However, her most treasured ministry is in her home where she and her husband Matt are rearing their four children – Mason, Pearla, Gabriella and Lilyana. Alana is passionate about the Word of God and considers it her calling and privilege to teach women how to study the Bible and grow in their knowledge and love of the Lord Jesus Christ.
*We are all blessed that Alana has committed to spend this weekend with us!!!

Why Go To Church?

Why Go To Church?

A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. "I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of them. So, I think I'm wasting my time and the pastors are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all."

This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the Editor" column, much to the delight of the editor.

It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher: "I've been married for 30 years now.. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals. But I do know this.. they all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!"

When you are DOWN to nothing.... God is UP to something!

Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible! Thank God for our physical AND our spiritual nourishment!
