March Newsletter 2024

Things aren’t always as simple as black and white.
So how do we navigate the gray?
Join us for our new sermon series- ***Timeless***. We will explore wisdom in a nuanced world. Drawing inspiration from popular sayings and proverbs worldwide, each message aligns them with Biblical wisdom. Maneuvering life’s complexities, we want to bridge the gap between human insight and the guidance that God’s Word and His Spirit offers us.

**Join us in person Sundays at 9:15am or 11:15am or online at:**

**This Saturday at 6pm**, we will be showing the film, *Days of Wine and Roses* and having a Q&A with the son of the screenwriter – Montgomery Miller!

It was nominated for 5 Academy Awards and was included as part of the National Film Registry which is a list of movies deemed “culturally, historically or aesthetically significant” that are earmarked for preservation by the Library of Congress.

Good Friday. A day marked on our calendars that tells us Easter is two days away. If we’re lucky we even get that day off of work. But what’s the significance? And why is it “good” when Christians believe this is the day
their Savior, Jesus, was murdered?

Join us with ALL of our campuses on March 29th for our Church-Wide Good Friday Experience at:

Gateway North, 7104 McNeil Drive

Reflective & Family Experience Walk Thru 5-7 PM
Identical Contemplative Services – 6:00 PM & 7:30 PM

You can’t fully understand Friday without grasping Resurrection Sunday- Easter. On this day those who follow Jesus celebrate that death could not defeat the One who came to show us the love of God and the way to truly experience life!

Identical Easter Services
**8:30AM | *10:00 AM | 12:00 PM**

Come at 8:30AM to enjoy Breakfast Tacos & Cold Brew!
