 New Bible Study Book

The Saturday Bible Study finished studying the Gospel of Luke. After discussion for the next Bible book for study, we concluded to study the Book of Hebrews. It is a mysterious but amazing book. Please join us to explore the theology and knowledge more in depth.

Photo Contest

The first annual photo contest is open. Please email your flower photo to pastor Je to enter. It does not have to be a recent photo. Five or more years or old photo is just fine. There are only two rules that it has to be a flower photo, and that is was taken by you.

Sunday Hymns

There will be more songs and music than our regular Sunday morning worship services. The three regular hymns are listed below. Let other songs surprise you on Sunday.

Sunday Scriptures and Sermon Title

Communion Sunday

Coming Sunday is Communion Sunday when we join the table of our Lord for the spiritual feast of eating His flesh and drinking His blood to gain the life eternal. Ready yourselves and come to the table of mercy and love.

May Days

May the 4th is Star Wars day. May the Force be with you. However we have other important days. May 5th is Cinco de Mayo, the independence day for many Latin American countries. It is also Children’s Day in South Korea. Following Monday is Yom HaShoah or the Holocaust Remembrance Day. Let us take some time and ponder on this ethnic cleansing tragedy which is still being repeated even today on other ethnic groups around the globe.

If you want to help dramatising the Scripture Reading, talk to Neal on Sunday morning.

Original Sin

OT Lesson: Ezekiel 18:1-4, 25-32 (NLT) Then another message came to me from the Lord: “Why do you quote this proverb concerning the land of Israel: ‘The parents have eaten sour grapes, but their children’s mouths pucker at the taste’? As surely as I live, says the Sovereign Lord, you will not quote this proverb any more in Israel. For all people are mine to judge—both parents and children alike. And this is my rule: The person who sins is the one who will die.” “Yet you say, ‘The Lord isn’t doing what’s right!’ Listen to me, O people of Israel. Am I the one not doing what’s right, or is it you? When righteous people turn from their righteous behaviour and start doing sinful things, they will die for it. Yes, they will die because of their sinful deeds. And if wicked people turn from their wickedness, obey the law, and do what is just and right, they will save their lives. They will live because they thought it over and decided to turn from their sins. Such people will not die. And

OT Lesson: Exodus 32:1-14 (CEB) The people saw that Moses was taking a long time to come down from the mountain. They gathered around Aaron and said to him, “Come on! Make us gods who can lead us. As for this man Moses who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don’t have a clue what has happened to him.” Aaron said to them, “All right, take out the gold rings from the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me.” So all the people took out the gold rings from their ears and brought them to Aaron. He collected them and tied them up in a cloth. Then he made a metal image of a bull calf, and the people declared, “These are your gods, Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!” When Aaron saw this, he built an altar in front of the calf. Then Aaron announced, “Tomorrow will be a festival to the Lord!” They got up early the next day and offered up entirely burned offerings and brought well-being sacrifices. The people sat down to eat and drin

Why Keep Sabbath? Week Two: Because Worrying is Overrated (Sunday, July 9th, 2017)

Bible Reference(s): Matthew 6:25-31 Sermon by Rev. Terri Thorn On this second week of the sermon series, Why Keep Sabbath, I'm wondering what does Sabbath-keeping mean to you?  For those over 40, it probably equates to a list of do's and don'ts about what is allowed on Sundays.   For most of us, honoring the Sabbath meant that you did go to church on Sunday and you did not go shopping.  During my childhood, we called Sunday, Holy Day, and there was a specific routine we followed.  All the women, all the children, and some of the men, went to church every Sunday.   Interestingly though, not everyone went to the same church. I'm sure there's a good story behind that - all I know is that my mom and grandparents took me to the Baptist church.  On a typical Sunday, we all gathered at my grandparents farm - even the heathen uncles who didn't go to church - for a huge Sunday afternoon meal.  Afterwards, the cousins were allowed to play together outside -- only if rem
