It’s an exciting season we’re in right now with a growing church congregation, increasing home group numbers and a vibrant youth and children program.
If you’ve visited before but been away for a while, you’ll notice some upgrades to the chapel and building outback area to help our ministries function more comfortably, but more encouraging is the growth in our people. Check out the different home groups for your connection with others and personal discipleship If you have kids, bring them along every second Friday night (and Wednesday for bible study). They’ll love to connect with the other youth.
Sunday services include a different band/ worship leader each week, with a kids church program during the sermon. You’ll notice the sermon usually includes at least 10 verses of Scripture as we believe in preaching the word of God verse by verse so God can speak to you personally.
Thanks for being with us and enjoy your week.

Ps. Caleb Lucas
Ecclesiastes 1:1-11 (NIV)
Everything Is Meaningless
1 The words of the Teacher,[a] son of David, king in Jerusalem:
2 “Meaningless! Meaningless!”
says the Teacher.
“Utterly meaningless!
Everything is meaningless.”
3 What do people gain from all their labors
at which they toil under the sun? 4 Generations come and generations go,
but the earth remains forever. 5 The sun rises and the sun sets,
and hurries back to where it rises. 6 The wind blows to the south
and turns to the north;
round and round it goes,
ever returning on its course. 7 All streams flow into the sea,
yet the sea is never full.
To the place the streams come from,
there they return again. 8 All things are wearisome,
more than one can say.
The eye never has enough of seeing,
nor the ear its fill of hearing. 9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun. 10 Is there anything of which one can say,
“Look! This is something new”?
It was here already, long ago;
it was here before our time. 11 No one remembers the former generations,
and even those yet to come
will not be remembered
by those who follow them.

Luke 12:13-21 (NIV)
The Parable of the Rich Fool
13 Someone in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”
14 Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?” 15 Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.”
16 And he told them this parable: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded an abundant harvest. 17 He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.’
18 “Then he said, ‘This is what I’ll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store my surplus grain. 19 And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.”’
20 “But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’
21 “This is how it will be with whoever stores up things for themselves but is not rich toward God.”
