Men’s Breakfast Saturday, April 18th 9:00 AM, Fellowship Hall

Men, have you ever ask yourselves the question:

As a church, are we more united or more divided?

Join us as guest speaker Travis Zimmerman of Speak My Word

Ministries explores with us the gripping topic, “Disputable Matters:

What really matters.” Sure it’s true that the Church holds a variety

of views on both theological and practical issues, but we’ll address

the heart of the issue: Are these issues worth dividing over, or is what

unites us greater than what divides us?
