Messages from our Members -

Please pray for the Stelfox family. Liz has two cousins back east. One cousin, Danielle, has a 2 year old son, Grayson. Remember him in your prayers. His family took him to the surgeon today for a brain tumor. He is scheduled for surgery tomorrow. Her other cousin was leaving for a Maranatha trip this week but had to pull out to stay with the family during this difficult time. Pray that she can meet up with the Maranatha group later.

Pastor Paul White from the Paradise Valley Church is retiring.

SDA Community Service Center The Lord has greatly blessed our Community Service Center with a beautiful transformation. Come visit, take a tour. It turned out so beautiful.

Memory Text: “But just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please man, but to please God who tests our hearts”(1 Thessalonians 2:4, ESV).

Key Thought: By revealing what the true motive in ministry must be, Paul can help us all examine our hearts and lives in light of the gospel.
