5 PM Evening Service & Dinners with Ben Ribbens
Oct 25, Nov 8 & 15, Dr. Ben Ribbens will be leading our evening services. Two beliefs form the foundation of Christianity: (1) the Trinity and (2) Jesus’s identity as both divine and human. Yet, even though these are the most fundamental doctrines of Christianity, we often struggle to know how exactly to articulate them. In our three-week series on the Creeds, we will look at the events that led the church to formalize positions on these matters at the Councils of Nicaea and Chalcedon. In the process, we will get to know the wrong ways of expressing these doctrines (heresies), learn how to express them faithfully, and discuss how these doctrines help us grow in faith, hope, and love.
We will meet in the fellowship hall, have some time for discussion and Q&A, and share dinner after the service. Nursery will be provided for these services. Please register so we can make preparations.
Let's Celebrate!
We’ll be celebrating our new attendees at Faith and getting to know each other better! Everyone is invited for some cake and conversation in the Fellowship Hall! Please be sure to grab a nametag at each of the entrance doors before the service or just inside the Fellowship Hall doors after the service.
Faith Book Club
The Faith book club has selected "Theo of Golden" by Allen Levi as the next book to read and discuss. A story of giving and receiving, of seeing and being seen, Theo of Golden is an unforgettable novel about the power of generosity, the importance of connection, and the quiet miracles that happen when we choose kindness and wonder. We will meet in the library on Tuesday October 13th at 7PM. Grab a copy and join us!
Updated Faith Directory
We’re working on Faith CRC directory updates! Please send family, couple and/or individual photos to the office to help us out. Please submit photos by September 25. Thank you for your help! If you do not have a family photo, stop by the back of the Fellowship Hall after the service on October 11 to get a quick picture taken.
District Get Togethers
Deacons and Elders will be starting to host 'Get Togethers' at church on select Sundays throughout the ministry year in hopes to spend a little time with the memebers of their district. The Get Togethers will be after the morning service during the Sunday School hour. Keep an eye out for an invitation in your church mailbox along with an email a week before your district meets.
Estuary
We will have an Estuary discussion group meetings the first Tuesday of each month beginning Nov 4 at 7pm at Faith CRC. This is a time where we can have deeper discussions regarding theology, philosophy, and politics and potentially connect with people outside the church. For more information you can go to estuaryhub.com or watch this video.
My Brother's Kitchen
We'll be serving at My Brother's Kitchen on October 31st from 8am-12pm. This ministry and the service you help provide align with our mission of Expanding God's Kingdom. We will be looking for food donations and 5 to 10 people to serve at My Brother’s Kitchen in Lawndale. Look for sign up sheets at the Registration Counter a few weeks before if you can help. Contact Steve David with any questions.
