The Importance of Thanksgiving

We wish you and your family a very Happy Thanksgiving as you celebrate God’s goodness! As we come to this holiday weekend, we have so much to be thankful for this year, even in the midst of all the challenges we have faced. In fact, an attitude of gratitude is essential for our current well-being. It is also the key to overcoming all the challenges we are still facing and will face in the future.

This Sunday in my message, A Thanksgiving Life, we will share three key truths that demonstrate the value and power of being thankful. The application of these truths to our lives will release the blessing of God! You will also learn why this is so crucial for us as we live in these last days.

Please note another exciting development. Our Toddler and PPT Kids: Roots classes have resumed and we are now expanding to include children aged 3 through to 10, starting this weekend! What an exciting development for our children!

We all know that prayer prepares our hearts to worship God and receive the truth of His Word. So we encourage you to join us for Pre-Service Prayer on Sunday at 9:30 am in the Prayer Room, or on the conference call.

Just a friendly reminder, that if you have registered to attend service and your plans change or not everyone in your family is able to come, please be sure to cancel their registration. Please do not register to hold seats you will not be using. We do have a waiting list and others are eager to attend if you cannot. Also note the church doors close at 10:45 am for security purposes, so be sure you arrive on time for service. Thank you for your cooperation in these matters as we seek to serve as many as possible.

We look forward to your presence with us whether in person or online this Thanksgiving weekend!

Every Blessing,

Pastor Barry Risto
Lead Pastor
