October Sermons and Studies

On Sunday, September 24, study books are going to be distributed to the congregation following each service. These are the books to be used during October by the small groups in the church, including special Vision Groups formed just for this purpose. If you don't belong to a small group now, you will be given opportunity that Sunday and October 1 to sign up in Reception Hall for a group. There will also be a congregation wide telephone campaign to inform and encourage attendace at the October 6 Vision Night, as well as give further opportunity to get connected to a small group.

These studies will be based on the sermons that Phil preaches during October. Because you are a blog reader, you will already know what they are before anyone else:
