Happy Friday church family!

Greetings from stormy Duluth! The Youth Group has made it with no problems to the District Blitz location. We’ve checked into the hotel, participated in the pre-Blitz prayer and praise at the DECC, and are grabbing dinner and settling in before the first main session this evening. The theme for this year is Arise and we’re studying the book of Jonah. I’m excited to see what the Blitz is all about and spending these few days with the youth group. Please keep the six youth and four adults in your prayers this weekend.

And since I will be in Duluth all weekend, we’ll have the pleasure of having Jim Hodgson with us again to give the message this Sunday. Thank you Jim, and to brother Joel who will be giving our Adult Bible Study at 9:00.

-- In faith, Pastor Eric

All who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. Romans 8:14-17 ESV
