Friday Night Recap: Rise and Shine

Friday night was a really special time. Pastor Dennis shared a message about being HOLY, to reflect a HOLY God. He encouraged us to not only rise up, but to shine as a light for Christ. 

To be holy is to be set apart and to be sanctified is the process of being made pure for God's use. The scripture in 1 Peter 2:9 calls us "a holy nation" and we can put that into practice on a personal level by stopping the pollution we intake and instead, taking in the Word of God. 

"It's one holy decision after another" - Pastor D

"Awareness of the thereness of God" - Pastor Jon Courson

We also had a yummy potluck. Thanks to everyone who brought a tasty dish. We sang Happy Birthday to Cinthia's brother Erick who turned 12 and sugar coma'd our night away with cake. 

Be sure to come out next week as we continue our series PUMP UP THE VOLUME! Next week we will be studying how we are "His own special people" with a message by T.

See you then!
