Interactive Bible Study: First Place 4 Health
Many diet experts agree that developing self-control is a key part of weight loss and weight management. But the Bible says that believers develop self-control only when Christ is at the center of their lives. The secret to self-control is giving up control to God!

Through this new 12-week Bible study, First Place 4 Health members will learn how to let go of their frantic need to control their circumstances, which often leads to stress induced, out of control eating. They will also take positive steps toward letting God take over the management of their mind, emotions, body and spirit. As Christ moves into first place, life moves into balance.

This 12 week study begins on Tuesday, March 9, 2010, will conclude on May 25. This is an open study for men and women. Each session takes place at the church from 7:00 p.m.–9:00 p.m. Registration is limited. Please register by contacting the
church office.

Messiah in the Passover
“Messiah in the Passover,” a vivid and exciting demonstration showing how Jesus fulfilled the ancient feast of Passover, will be held on Thursday, March 18, 2010, beginning at 6:00 p.m. in the Worship Center.

Our special guests will be Steve and Carol Fenchel, missionaries with Chosen People Ministries. Chosen People Ministries was founded in 1894 and has grown into a worldwide ministry to “the Jews first and to the Gentile.”

“Messiah in the Passover” begins with a traditional Passover Seder table complete with all the articles of this important Jewish celebration. Pastor Steve will explain the symbolic meanings of the various items of the Passover feast and highlight their relationship to the Last Supper that Messiah celebrated with the disciples, giving special emphasis on the redemptive significance of the crucifixion.

A meal will follow the presentation and time of communion. The meal will feature a traditional Jewish menu. This is a unique presentation you will not want to miss. The evening is family friendly and will give insights into Jewish traditions so that the Jewish roots of Christianity can be understood. A time of worship will enhance the experience. Be sure and purchase your tickets for the event early and plan to bring a friend. Tickets are only $2 for an individual or $5 for a total family ticket.
