Mission: Tanzania

chris — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 10:53:07 +0000

This past Sunday Matt and Lindsey shared the story of how God is calling them to Tanzania. We assure you, this is worth a listen (at the bottom of this post).

When you’re finished, you may be wondering how you can partner with God’s work through the DeYoungs? Here are a few ways:

Stay in touch with the DeYoung’s by adding yourself to their e-mail list.
Commit to consistently pray for the DeYoungs and the people of Tanzania.
Support the DeYoung’s financially. 50 families at $50/month allows them to pack their bags and head out.
Participate in the golf outing on Saturday, July 24 at Wallinwood.

Head to followingthecall.org to contact them, pledge support, or sign up for the golf outing.

Guys Night

chris — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 20:12:29 +0000

Ok…so this is a little last minute, but what else would you expect from a bunch of guys?

This Friday, June 18 – 5:30pm, join us for disc golfing at Old Farm Park (2298 Embro Dr SE · Kentwood). No experience needed! We’ll have extra discs if you don’t have any. We’ll head out for food afterwards. If you can’t make it for disc golf, shoot us an e-mail the day of to find out what restaurant we’ll be at (because let’s be honest, we probably won’t have decided until then).

We love movies. They make us laugh. They inspire us. They are a quintessential form of entertainment. But more than a good time, every movie – from Anchorman to Braveheart – has the potential to shape the way we see the world. Movies reflect our culture back to us, do you like what you see? Join us for our next series, The Gospel According to Hollywood.
