Sermon Podcast – May 25, 2014 – An 8-Word Mission Statement

Based on John 14:15-21.

Let’s get FIRED UP!

There’s a lot going on in our church today (Thursday, May 22).  The John Calvin Presbytery meeting, happening now, will conclude with a 2:00 worship service.  Immediately afterwards, a bus is taking about 40 people to the Cardinals game.

That said, our alternative worship service will still go on as planned this evening at 6:30pm.  FIRED UP! is an informal, contemporary worship service held in the fellowship hall.  If you’re not headed to the ballgame, and are not too tired from participation with the Presbytery meeting, I hope to see you tonight!
