“Forget the former things, do not dwell on the past.”

Isaiah 43:18

Please be in prayer for the entire Siegfreid family during

their time of transition. This week, especially pray for

Shawna Siegfreid. She is the oldest daughter of our

new Senior Pastor, Shawn Siegfreid.

Our Great Opportunity To Serve

Do you ever feel like there is no place for you to serve God? “The

church doesn’t need me anymore.” “Others could do the job better

than I can.” Or maybe you say, “I’ve done my time, let someone else do

it for a change.” “I’m too old,” and on and on; we could go on with our

excuses.

But the truth of the matter is, God needs everyone in the field of

service. The fields are ripe with the harvest...now is the time...put your

hands to the plow and don’t look back. You didn’t sign up for easy

when you parachuted behind the enemy’s line. There is so much to do

and so little time to do it. God and the church need you to get

involved in reaching the lost. Nineveh is out there. “Go to the city of

Nineveh (Denver) and proclaim to it the message I give you.”

God has a place for you to serve!

Obeying Him,

Pastor Bob

Pardon our dust!

This will include removing damaged wallpaper, drywall prep and painting, along with moving furniture in and out of offices to make way for new carpet. We are looking for volunteers that can help with this. If you would be able to volunteer between the hours of 8:00 am and 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday, sometime over the next few weeks, please call Angie at 303/806-2603 and let her know the times that you would be available to help.
