Tonight - August 28

Thunderbird Christian Elementary Back 2 School Bash

Bring the whole family for fun, swimming, and food.  Get to know the teachers, other parents and kids.

Potluck Dinner where YOU bring the food. 

7:00 - 9:00pm     Thunderbird Adventist Academy Pool

Next Sabbath:  Pastor White continues our summer series, stories from the great story-teller, with the parable of the lost/prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32) and the compassionate Father; probably one of Jesus’  most widely known stories.  Don’t miss a new look at this dynamic parable.  

We are invited to plan our offering giving by setting aside our contributions in advance.  In keeping with that principle, the offering next Sabbath, September 4, is for Camelback Church Ministries.

And every day, life comes back as families begin again in the comfort and safety of SOJOURNER CENTER’S campuses.

The mission of SOJOURNER CENTER is to overcome the impact of domestic violence, one life at a time.
