WH AT TO EXPECT TOD AY
Worship: a time to connect with God through song and prayer.
Feel free to stand and sing with us as we praise God through
singing by following the on-screen lyrics. A typical service lasts
about 65 minutes.
Offering: We give tithes and offerings as a part of worship in
obedience, celebration, and thanksgiving to the Lord. Its also just
our way of saying, We love our church and we want to support
it! If you are a guest, you are not expected or obligated to give.
Children: We have a fully-staffed Nursery for ages three and
below. Kids ages 4-12 will be dismissed during the service to the
childrens chapel to be taught by Pastor Linda and her staff.
Message: The teaching time seeks to communicate biblical truth
in compelling, relevant ways. All of our messages are available
as podcast on our website www.estillnaz.org or through iTunes.

Response: When God is speaking, we take time to respond.

Most of the time this is after the message, but at other times it
may be in the middle of the service. An invitation is never needed
if you want to pray at the altar.
Communion: We take time monthly to celebrate Communion
and welcome all followers of Jesus Christ to participate in this act
of worship and remembrance regardless of membership or
denomination.

COMMUNITY LIFE
Faith Promise Sunday is TODAY
What is Faith Promise? It is a biblical method of giving used to raise
financial support for the World Evangelism Fund (missions). It is a
promise made in faith between an individual and God. That promise is
based on what the giver believes God wants him or her to give above
and beyond tithe.
Every Church of the Nazarene is asked to give a percentage of their
income to the World Evangelism Fund. Faith Promise is how we raise
monies for this.
You may make a one time gift, weekly gift, monthly gift, etc.. Please
be in prayer about the amount God would have you give above your
tithe for global missions.
Each of you must give as you have made up your mind, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
2 Corinthians 9:7

MICAH 6:8 MINISTRY from Sandy Schefcik

Did You Know.. that April 15th is traditionally Tax Day in America? But
you'd be shocked by how your tax dollars are funding corruption. There
are federal appeals court cases pending to end the partisan, politically
corrupt IRS abuse. Three years ago the IRS admitted to targeting
conservative and pro-life groups because of their political beliefs. The
American Center for Law and Justice represents 38 of those targeted
groups in massive litigation. The Administration is using your tax dollars to
cover up IRS abuse and protect the officials who tried to squelch your
speech. Pray for justice to be done.

PRAYER RALLY! AMERICA'S GREATEST NEED!

Sonya Brown

Tim Gilliam

Franklin Graham will be in Nashville on Tuesday, May 3, for both a

Prayer and Preaching Event. This Prayer Rally is to help bring hope to
America. Our greatest need is often overlooked because of its
simplicity! God has promised to HEAL OUR LAND! Our responsibility
is to humble ourselves, and pray, and seek His face (His presence not
His presents), and turn from our wicked ways! Our Nation is in a crisis
and we need divine healing. PRAYER is the KEY!
