I AM
Current Series | March 16 - April 20
The gospel of John records multiple instances of Jesus using the words “I am.” Most often, he does so as part of a metaphor intending to teach his followers more about what he is like. In at least one instance, Jesus uses these two words to claim divinity. In every occurrence, Jesus’ “I am” statements garner a response from his listeners. It should be the same for followers of Jesus today, and this series will carefully consider his words. When we encounter an “I am,” statement from Jesus, our first response should be, “am I?”

Chair Crew
Serve Opportunity | Sundays
We’re looking for individuals or small groups to help set up the Worship Center for our Sunday Gatherings. This includes arranging chairs and setting up communion tables. With about four people, this task typically takes under an hour.
If you’re interested in serving in this way, please email Jennifer in the church office at jennifer@seekstudyserve.org.
Thank you for your willingness to serve our church community!
Kid’s City - Kid Builders
Serve Opportunity | Sundays
Think back to your childhood. Who was that one person who was not part of your family who had an influence on you? Was it a school teacher? Was it someone from church? How are you living out what they did for you? Serving in Kids City is a perfect way to be an influence. We have plenty of opportunities for you to invest in the spiritual lives of our kids once a month (or more if you would like). For more information email our Children’s Minister, Greta at greta@seekstudyserve.org
We have a few ways you can connect with the community throughout the week. Check us out at our online Facebook Campus or YouVersion.
Generosity
Generosity is one of our core values. We never look more like Jesus than when we are giving. Your generosity is the fuel that enables us to minister to others.
Prayer Request
Let us know how we can be praying for you this week.
Blessing Bucket Request
Have you seen the bright orange buckets in the foyer? They are our Blessing Buckets. If you know of someone who could use a little help, maybe a gas or grocery card, or even help with something like putting a lock on their front door, we can try to help! Fill out a Blessing Bucket request and a deacon will connect with you to get more details. Another way to be generous is to drop a couple of dollars in the Blessing Buckets to help fund these needs.
