Sabbath Support Group!
Jesus said in Matthew, Chapter 11, “28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”. Many of us carry burdens that weigh us down in life that can just fill us with grief, anger, and so many mixed emotions.
Monday, October 21st, Pastor Ben will be leading Sabbath Group sessions. At this Sabbath group, we will create a safe community for anyone who is going through hardships to come and lay down their burdens at the feet of Christ. We will have sharing times with scripture, music, prayer and other Christian resources that will hopefully leave all with the Sabbath rest of the Gospel that those with heavy burdens are looking for. These meetings will take place the third Monday of every month at 4 PM. If you have any questions, please contact Pastor Ben.
