Provide justice for the needy and the fatherless; uphold the rights of the oppressed and the destitute. Rescue the poor and needy; save them from the power of the wicked.
Psalm 82:3-4
The Freedom Church Alliance is helping churches raise awareness, fight trafficking, and support anti-trafficking initiatives.
Many people in our area have never heard of the term Sex Trafficking and those that have don’t know how to help fight this very real problem that exists. This is one of the ways to take action!
Please help our community through a GOBAG initiative?
Watch this video about GoBags and how they help.
This is a huge problem and requires a huge effort by the Body of Christ!
Our goal is 25 bags.
The cost $30 to fill one bag.
Contact Angie Wolfe to make a donation.
Let Angie Wolfe know if you want to help at the packing event. Date TBD.
Ask Angie Wolfe how you can help combat trafficking.
Let’s unite and ignite the flame! Together we can make a difference! Are you in?
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus says the LORD, “Let My people go, that they may serve Me.”’”
Exodus 8:1 (ESV)
“Strike the rock, and water will come out of it for the people to drink” (Exodus 17:6).
Water is a basic necessity of life. Without it no one would last long.
And it doesn’t just provide life through drinking, it also is needed for cleansing and waste removal; and even for recreation.
So it is understandable why the Israelites are…testy…when they are living in the wilderness with no water – for themselves or their livestock.
So they revert back to their seemingly only playbook – complain about God and bemoan how good Egypt was.
Sigh.
After countless displays of His faithfulness to them, He is once again at the end of their displeasure and lack of trust.
So He provides a means of, literally, getting water from a Rock; providing water from the very Water of Life, the pre-incarnate Christ! If we go to Him for drink and believe in Him, “out of [our] heart will flow rivers of living water” (John 7:38).
We are guaranteed of all this because blood and water flowed from His side on the cross. We see that it is through God’s Words and promise joined to water in our Baptism that we are united with Him; with His suffering, in His victory over sin, death, and the Devil; in His resurrection.
“Strike the Rock” was the command, and the result was the saving of the Israelites with the Living Water.
God saves us through the same Living Water, Jesus, through faith and baptism. God saves us from being struck down in death because He was struck as the Rock; struck before Pilate; struck on the Cross.
We are saved by the Living Water, Jesus! Drink Him in fully and, strengthened in Him, flow in that Water to drench others with Him; His Word, His love; His forgiveness; His life.
The Rock was struck! Through faith in Him, you and I are saved!
How amazing! Thank You, Lord!
“Gracious Father, thank You for providing Your Son, the Living Water to save Your people in the wilderness and saving us through the waters of Baptism. Grant us a continual thirst for Him so that we always seek, drink, live, and share Him in all our dealings with life and others. In His precious and life-giving name do we pray. Amen.”

Jews the world over celebrate the Seder as a reminder to the Passover. For Christians, we see the deep and deliberate connection of the Passover and Jesus as “the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world” (John 1:29). We will see the how God has saved us from death by the blood of His Lamb, Jesus, just as He saved Israel from death through the blood of lambs in the Exodus.

Teach Preschoolers To Pray.
Idea
Idea: When we pray, we are talking to God, just like we talk to mommy and daddy. We can thank God for things he’s given us, ask him for help, and talk to him when we’re Scared.
Memory Verse
“Never stop praying.”1 Thessalonians 5:17 (NIrV)
4-Week Series

Ask for Help
Little Ones will learn that they can ask God for help in every situation. Daniel 6:10-23, Daniel In The Den Of Lions.
Talk to God When You’re Scared

Pray for Others

Jesus was surrounded by both men and women during his ministry on earth. He saw, valued, and cared for women, and He still does today!
Through these three sessions, we will discover who Jesus is through the unique perspective of women in the Bible. We will learn from their faith and failures, how he equipped them, listened to them, walked with them, healed them, and empowered them. And how he does the same for you now!
Please join us! (You do not have to have participated in the CBS Matthew Study as this is just a bonus series in between sessions of Matthew.)
