What a wonderful time we had with Pastor David Hocking! A true walking Bible! For those of you that could not make it out we have recorded the two session he did here in Flint. The first one is on the supremacy of the Word of God and was taught to the Michigan pastors. The second was taught as a guide to studying the Bible. They are both really, really practical and helpful. May the Lord bless you as you dig into His life-changing WORD!

Well, Winter Camp 2009 is over! It was amazing. It was Jesus! Jesus is amazing!

We saw MANY kids commit their lives to Jesus Christ for the first time, many that recommitted themselves to Him! Absolutely incredible. We love you Jesus.

We’ve set up a website with the messages, videos and photos for those that could not make it. Spread the word, perhaps the Lord will continue to use this years camp in the lives of many more!!!

Well it’s official, we have finally competed the affiliation process with Calvary Chapel!!! The affiliation process was important to us for three simple reasons...

1. People can find us on the main Calvary Chapel website (www.calvarychapel.com)

2. As a Calvary Chapel affiliate, taking the Calvary Chapel name.... people know what they are going to get when they show up to our church. A strong emphasis on teaching the Word of God systematically and thoroughly, the emphasis on the person and work of the Holy Spirit and His influence upon the Church, The Worship of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit within our services.

They know that we are in agreement to the Calvary “disitinctives” and are “on record” as such.

3. The accountability and prayer support it affords us with other Calvary Chapel churches.

It’s a blessing to see it complete!!
