Evangelist Jeremy Frazor is our guest speaker this morning (10 AM, AUD). In the evening our life groups will meet. All are welcome at our evening gathering (5 PM, Chapel) as Pastor Jones preaches. Get our preaching calendar and learn more about our pastoral transition at morningside.org/transition. Join us next Sunday evening (5 PM, AUD) for an update from our deacons.
Welcome, Guests!
Thank you for joining us. Our church family would love to get to know you. Start the relationship by filling out the blue card in front of you. After the service we have a gift for you. Meet us at our Guest Services table in the lobby, and see our hosts for scent-free auditorium seating.
If you are a college student, we hope you will find a friendly church family here where you can grow, serve, and connect right away. We would love to be your home church away from home. We are a multigenerational congregation that offers services in English, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese.
Ministry: Loving God
If you want to show your love for God in serving here, there are several ways you can get involved. Help lead our worship services with our choir or media team. Help us disciple our kids on Sunday mornings or Wednesday nights. And help us welcome guests on our Connect Team. Get in touch with us today at morningside.org/serve. Join us on September 15 for our Ministry Fair!
