KEEPING YOUR FINANCIAL BOAT AFLOAT
Over the course of 5 weeks we will be looking at helping students determine the
strength of their “financial boat”, create a “map” for their finances, help identify &
plug monetary “leaks”, and navigate the “rough seas” of sudden money problems,
so eventually they will reach their debt-free future. Whether you’re in high school/
college, single, a young married couple or a couple that has been around for a
while, this class will hopefully bring insight into helping you keep your “financial
boat” afloat. Join us for fun, information & fellowship.
~ Lead by Matthew Vander Plow & Bryan Booker.
EXPLORE THE BOOK
We’ll be finishing up the last five books of the New Testament especially
focusing on the book of Revelation.
~ Lead by Pastor Gary Spykerman & Kurt Postma
“IN THE DUST OF THE RABBI”
During his ministry in Israel, Jesus called and trained disciples, his “talmidim”.
Their job would eventually be to bring His message of redemption to all the
nations, Jew and Gentile. What would happen when they began to make disciples
of their own and the gospel began to spread to a Greek and Roman world, to
cultures completely unfamiliar with the God of the Jews? Follow the rabbi through
Israel and Turkey as you explore what it meant to be the message of Jesus to all
nations. Come– join us as we learn the Bible in it’s’ Historical Context with the
teaching ministry of Ray VanderLaan “That the World May Know” faith video
lessons in partnership with Focus on the Family Ministries.
~Lead by John Tooke
THE GRACE BY WHICH WE STAND
In this five week class, we will be discussing the setting aside of Israel’s

THE GATHERING - YOUNG ADULT CLASS
This 5-week class will be a time for young adults to gather and enjoy food,
