Life to Life Discipleship
Posted October 31, 2018 By adminOur Life to Life Discipleship program has kicked off with the beginning of two small group studies. Just as the twelve apostles learned from their Master, Life to Life is an opportunity for church family members to study the Scriptures with their pastor and be equipped to become examples of a living faith. Over time, our small groups will expand, and more church members will become a part of this ministry. In time, we will see a discipling culture emerge where people joyfully
live out their faith, seeking God’s kingdom first, while sharing their faith with others. This is exactly how the apostles built the Church, and how it grew stronger over time. Meeting people where they are, sharing faith, and growing the church one life at a time.

Up and Going News
Posted October 31, 2018 By adminThe Up and Going made the annual Apple Run on September 26. Sandra boarded the bus and gave the devotions reminding us of 9/11 and God’s Love and Care. Thirteen members including one guest had a delicious meal at the Golden Coral in Hendersonville, NC. We went to the Lyda Farms and carefully chose apples, cabbage, tomatoes and other goodies. This is such a pretty place to visit and shop. We have been visiting Lyda Farms for 20 years. It sure has grown and developed beautifully. We made pictures and enjoyed walking through the displays. A storm was brewing so we loaded up and headed home. The bus was filled with laughter and conversation as we traveled home via I-26. Thankfully, we arrived at St. Jacob’s before the rain. We sincerely appreciate Gerald driving for us and helping load and unload our purchases.
