Hi Everyone!
Just a quick update on a few things. First, it was great to see everyone at the beach Sunday! If you would like to listen to the message from that morning, you can find it HERE. That will be our last outdoor service for the year. Our next in-person get together will be back at the Community Center on October 25th! More details about what that will look like and how we will do it will be coming.
THIS SUNDAY, we will be back online live on FaceBook. We will be concluding the Super-8 series on Jesus' Beatitudes. I really want to encourage you to join with some other people and watch it together. It's a great way to keep the fellowshipping in our fellowship. Plus, starting October 11th I'll start making discussion questions available that will go along with the weekly message. If you would like to join someone but don't know where to start, please let me know and I will get you connected with someone. We've got some logistics to work out, and as we do I hope this will become smoother for everyone. I recorded a video message with more information about how we plan to move forward HERE.
Hey, we have a couple of special study groups that are already running, and this Thursday there is a NEW group starting. Check out the details below:
Ladies Study - Mondays 7:00 pm via Zoom - Eileen Cramer leads a ladies fellowship and study each week via Zoom. The topics change all the time, so there's no better time to join in than now! - Contact Eileen at eileen@shorelinevineyard.org for more details.
Freedom Series - Tuesdays 7:30 pm via Zoom - Christ has accomplished a complete work of deliverance for all who come to believe and understand what Jesus redeemed us from and what that really means in our day to day lives. Jesus wasn’t kidding when He said, “It is finished!” Join us for this series by Pastor Dan Mohler online via zoom to discover real, lasting freedom from wrong thinking and strongholds and a worldly perspective that we’ve all grew up with and carried for so long. This will change your life! - Contact Marc at mjpfaux@aol.com for more details.
Through the Bible in 90 Days - Wednesdays 8 pm via Zoom - Dave and Amy Mueller (Feed Them Ministries) are kicking off a virtual group that will read through the entire Bible in 90 days! Are you up for the challenge? The group starts reading on their own THIS THURSDAY with Genesis 1:1 through Exodus 40:38. Additional materials and resources may be used from https://scriptureawakening.com/b90/. Contact Amy & Dave at ameliaanddavid@yahoo.com for more details.
