Connection Card 02/01/2015 If you are visiting with us for the first time this morning, we would love to meet you! Please fill out this Connection Card and bring it to our Welcome Center to receive your Visitor Gift! Prayer Focus this week: For those leading halftimes on Saturday, for our halftime commissioner, for the ministerial staff, for the families of our ministers, for our church maintenance crew, that enthusiasm will remain high. Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered, life-changing recovery program. The program encourages fellowship and celebrates God’s healing power in our lives as we work our way along the road to recovery. By working through the principles, we grow spiritually and are freed from our hurts, hang-ups, and habits. We become willing to accept God’s grace and forgiveness in solving life’s problems. Join us as we come together on the road to recovery. Children’s Church on Sundays at PV During our Children’s Church time, we will be studying Jesus’ disciples and how He used ordinary men to do extraordinary things in His ministry.
