On Sunday, July 4th we will be holding a baptism Sunday. If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and believe that God has raised Him from the dead and you have not been baptized yet, you are ready to be baptized. If you are interested contact Pastor Dave Johnson and he will set up a time to discuss the subject of baptism with you.

I can not think of a more fitting day to be baptized than independence day! In this post we have included some verses about the subject of baptism so that you can more fully understand the importance of this act. Please understand that the act of baptism does not provide salvation. It is only through Christ’s death and resurrection that we are reconciled to God and receive forgiveness for sin. Although baptism does not provide salvation we acknowledge it’s importance as an act that Christ has commanded believers to take part in Mat. 28:19. Please take some time to read through the scriptural data and try to more fully understand this act of joining with Christ! (more…)

Thanks so much for the hard work and devotion you gave during 3 Days and 3 Nights in Orange, CA. I hope it was a growing experience for all that attended. I received this e-mail from Ken Mortensen at Forest Home and wanted to share it with you:

I want to thank you, your staff and all the youth who spent the day at Forest Home last week.  Each time I go into the former bookstore soon to be game room I am thankful for the many hands that accomplished so much.

I was in yesterday afternoon removing the last two sections of slat board on the north wall and noticed that all that you had removed was sorted and stacked in an orderly manner.  You have blessed me and Forest Home, thank you.
