  2. New Sermon Series in English Service

With the start of a new year it’s a good time to reflect on our lives and consider where we need to make some course adjustments. Starting in January we will be starting a new series with that purpose in mind. Some of the topics covered will be getting a renewed vision for your life, redefining your purpose, and with that in mind how you spend your time and your money, as well as invest in relationships.

Sermon study notes and follow-up discussion questions will be made available in the service. Please contact Pastor Don if you wish to have those emailed to you.

Come prepared to interact with others as we discuss these important life issues.
