TRUTH FREEDOM TRANSFORMATION
@greenvillefmc #ObeyingGod
Obeying God (our theme for the year) is not always easy. The Lord knows that and He provides ways to make it easier. Today we will discover a strategy He employs that some people might question but which shows up in almost every book of the Bible.
If you are our guest today, please stop by one of the WelcomeCenters before you leave to get more information and a gift.If you have children, we provide very safe surroundings andwonderful activities. See more information inside this folder.
Please fill out the Communication Card, which you will find in your bulletin, and place it in the basket on your way out. Don’t hesitate to jot down a prayer request. Again, welcome, as weworship God for who He is and listen to what He says.
