I hope you enjoyed our kick off to fall last week with our new series, You Make the Call. We had nachos, and big screen TV’s with football. We even had goal posts up so the kids (and even some adults) could kick field goals. It’s going to be a great series as we look at the Book of Proverbs. This week will be another fun weekend as we continue with our football theme. I do however want to let you know of a change of plans. We had planned on a BBQ this Sunday, but it seems like ice cream weather is in the forecast! So instead, we will have ice cream cookie sandwiches and lemonade on the patio. That way we can have the BBQ next week when the weather is cooler.

Fall at Mariners Church Ocean Hills means the launch of Rooted and Life Groups. We believe that life change happens in circles not rows, so although Sunday mornings are great, we value what community can bring to your life. Please be thinking and praying about joining a Rooted Group or a Life Group. I know we are all busy and have so much going on, but it is so important to do life with others. Attaching yourself to people who will encourage you, hold you accountable, laugh with you, and point you towards God is invaluable. We will give you opportunity to jump into groups, or better yet, form your own group, and we will train your leader and give you curriculum to go through.

We look forward to seeing you on Sunday, even if it is hot, rest assured we will have the A/C pumping and it will be a weekend you won’t want to miss. As always, invite someone to join you. Bring a friend, a family member, a co-worker or a neighbor.

Take Care,
Jeff
