Adults: A NEW ADULT CLASS IN RM 107 This Sunday, September 29, we will start a 10-week class using the History Channel mini-series "The Bible" at 9:15 a.m. We will watch one episode together and then at 10 a.m. we will have a guided discussion on the episode, what the Bible says, and what God might be saying to us today. This is a very approachable class and a great way to engage the Bible story anew or for the very first time. All are welcome.
The class in Rm 201 will continue their series on "Reading the Bible for Understanding" at 9:45 a.m. where we learn new tools for reading and understanding Scripture. Everyone is invited to the adult Sunday school class. Bring your questions, bring your thoughts, bring your brain, and bring your heart. All are welcome!"

THOUGHT OF THE WEEK
The physical voice we use in prayer need not be great nor startling; even should we not lift up any great cry or shout, God will yet hear us. - Origen
FOOD TRUCK THURSDAY
We invite you to come out this Thursday, September 26, from 5 to 8 p.m. when food trucks will be in the MPC parking lot! Bring your camping chairs and picnic blankets and enjoy the food from Atlanta Burger and On Tapa The World. For dessert we will have popsicles, and the first 100 King of Pop popsicles are free! Don't miss the fun!
CLIFTON DINNER

After serving dinner, we invite you to go out to dinner with us (always a fun activity).
