Grace After Abortion

Please watch this video to hear how Sydna found peace and healing after her abortion.
(If you haven't heard the first part of her story yet, please click here.)



What an amazing testimony to the love God has for all of us.


If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9)

I would love to hear your thoughts on this topic.

February 5 Weekly News

ASTOR BRANDT’S BIBLE STUDY: “I realize that my years are limited that I will be able to lead a Bible Study. But I plan to continue as long as my physical and mental health permit and as long as it is enjoyable. (The members of the class make it enjoyable for me.) I can’t recollect teaching the Epistle of Galatians, although I may have. I can’t remember what specific Books of the Bible I have taught during the 62 years plus that I have been in the ministry. Galatians has lessons in it pertinent to today. Class will begin this Thursday, February 9, at 10:30 AM in the Fellowship Room. I think that those who have attended in the past mean it when they say they are looking forward to the class.” – Pastor Brandt (Contact Becky in the church office to enroll.)
