Bible Studies

  • Winter Bible Study “Book of Acts”. The new Christian church was filled with ups and downs. God worked to bring great numbers into his fold. The world also tried to keep God’s Word from spreading. One thing we do see, God blessed his church tremendously. Join us for a study of the book of Acts to learn about the growth of God’s church after his ascension. To join us for in-person Bible class, join us Mondays at 7:00pm and Wednesdays at 11:00am.  Pastors are recording the Monday session and putting it on YouTube, Wednesdays at noon. An archive of classes including all the previous chapters are available on Youtube for those who want to review or who haven’t attended and want to catch up and join the study in person or online.
New Christian Worship: Hymnal

Goal Accomplished and Surpassed!

Through your generous gifts, $15,329.00 was donated.

The Council added $2,100.00 from a special gift we received, which allows us to replace all hymnals in the sanctuary, imprint them with the church’s name, and purchase 30 psalters and 30 hymnals for the choir room.

For more information on the new Christian Worship: Hymnal go to www.christianworship.com.

Online Giving has a new look! Our Giving website will be updated this next week.   Don’t be alarmed if things look a little different and please call the office if you have any questions.  (920)885-3309

PTS Book Fair The PTS will be hosting a Book Fair May 2-9 in the church basement. A wide variety of books will be set out on Sunday from 8:30 AM-Noon, and weekdays from 3:15 PM-4:00 PM. This is open for anyone. Bring your kids, grandkids, nieces, nephews, and anyone else interested in picking up a good book. Sales from the book fair help our teachers fill their classrooms with books.

Grant Writing Help Needed Do you have experience in grant writing?  Or maybe interest in taking on a new project to help your church and day school?  We are looking for someone who would have the ability to work with members of our church and school, to research, present, and obtain grants in different areas in need of updates/improvements.  If the Lord has gifted you with time or experience, please reach out to the office at 920-885-3309.

Opportunity to share Jesus’ Love with a Christian sister or brother!  There are over 200 boxes of offering envelopes yet to be picked up by people who may not be coming to worship because of Covid, other illness or disability.  Take a look in the basement to see if a box belongs to someone in your family or to a friend.  Perhaps you could give them a call and drop off their envelopes.  More important than getting the envelopes to them, however, is to tell them they are loved and missed.    If you learn that for some reason they don’t want envelopes, call the Church Office (885-3309), so records can be updated and we can be more efficient in ordering envelopes for next year.

Teens Activity: The teens are going to meet for Bible Study and games this next Saturday, April 10, from 2:00 PM-4:00 PM.
