Hi Living Stones,
As I’ve said it before, constant change is here to stay and it looks like “virtual church” will be continuing a bit longer. It’s not a situation we would have chosen, but we’ve had little choice. We’ve had to make changes. Which means it’s a season of growth. How so? We grow by trying to do what we don’t know how to do, until we do. And if you’re like me, you don’t do that until you’re pushed. So here we are. A season where God has done some pushing and said, “Time to grow!” Grow in compassion. Grow in generosity. Grow in creativity. Grow in passion to see the Kingdom of God extended and His will done on earth as it is in heaven – through you and me. We’ve been positioned for such a time as this.
Join us Sunday as we consider these things in the final installment of our “Discover Purpose” series. Streamed services are at 7:30 am, 9:00 am, 10:30 am, 6:00 pm or watch on-demand later. You can watch them here.
A few other reminders of what’s coming up:
Tune in this Friday, May 1, 7:14 am for a time of “Prayer & Worship” as we focus in on praying for Hawaii. Why at 7:14 am? We’re responding to 2 Chronicles 7:14 (NLT): “Then if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land.” (www.livingstoneschurch.com or Facebook)
Communion will be celebrated this Sunday at all streamed services, so have your wine/juice and bread ready to participate with your family in your own living room!
Community Help Project is open for non-perishable food donations at our Alii Drive site on Wednesdays, 3-5 pm and also at the same time food pick-up for those in need, Wednesdays, 3-5 pm. Food pick-up is also available on Fridays, 11 am – noon at Chubbies (bowling alley building). For more info click here!
And don’t forget to join us for our Mid-Week Service this Wednesday, May 6, 6:30 pm. For this “First Wednesday” of the month we have something special in mind. For more info click here!
