“The promises of the Bible are nothing more than God’s covenant to be faithful to His people. It is His character that makes these promises valid.”
—Jerry Bridges

Announcements
—Property Update * We started the process of listing our land for sale. We are listing our property to stay on track with our current time table for the potential purchase of the new building, as we would need to use the proceeds from the sale of our land for the downpayment. Our land will not actually be sold unless the congregation votes to sell once we get an offer(s). * We are narrowing in on what our budget needs would be with the purchase of the building. This will be presented along with other details and information at a called church meeting soon after our worship service at the prospective site. * We will have an evening worship service/open house at the prospective site on Sunday, September 15 (time is still being determined). —Men’s Study Group Mercy men are invited to participate in a weekly study of RC Sproul’s 12 week teaching series “Willing to Believe” on the topic of free will and God’s sovereignty.
