Last week in Childrens Church we learned about
Joshua and Caleb. They did what was right even
though ten other spies did not! We learned that we
need to stand up and do what is right, even when
others dont. We know that God will give us the
courage to do this when we trust in Him.
When I am afraid, I will trust in you. Psalm 56:3
-October 3rd will be our first day of the Pre-
School Program. It will take place in the wiggle
zone from 10:00-11:00am. Coffee for the moms
and activities, stories and more for the tots! See
you then!

Core Values...
Values central to the life, mission andvision of Fifth Avenue Church of Christ are:
Christ-Centered WorshipWe make it a priority every Sunday to celebrate Jesus through ourmusic. (Romans 11:36-12:1-2). We focus on Jesus through grace-
based preaching and teaching & understand the Bible is ourauthority (2 Timothy 3:16).
Church Health and Biblical Balance
Church health becomes reality when God's people seek harmony &live consistently. We expect every member to protect the unityof Christ's Church. (Romans 12:16; 1 Peter 3:8)
Global EvangelismWe are constant to our founding call to worldwide evangelism,
proclaiming to all that Jesus Christ is the Savior, Healer, and Soon-Coming King (Acts 20:27).
Fellowship and MinistryAfter people begin their journey with Jesus, we will equip them tofind a ministry based upon their strengths. We want everyone to
serve in some capacity. (1 Corinthians 12:12-27) We also want Hischurch to be the living evidence of His love and power to the world.
DiscipleshipWe do not want you to "get religion" here at Fifth Avenue Church ofChrist in Lancaster. We are all about teaching you that Jesus seeks
a daily relationship with Him through a life of obedience. In otherwords, we want to see the things you are taught actually change
