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.

Note from an inmate

Thank you for all you do and the prayers. God is
good! Please continue the prayers. The Lord is
giving me so many answers and I thank you for
the lesson you both give. I have found an outlet
by coloring. I have found I really enjoy it and it helps with the time. It
also sooths the frustration and agitation of being in here.
Missed you both so much last week. You two bring so much light and
love to us. Just want to Thank You from the bottom of my heart. 10
days to go. Keep me in your prayers.
---Jennifer

MICAH 6:8 MINISTRY from Sandy Schefcik

Did You Know.. North Carolina passed H.B. 2 -- the law that gives
local employers the freedom to set their own policies on things like
restroom, locker room, and shower access? North Carolina's Governor
McCrory has pointed out that the bill wouldn't have been necessary if
the city of Charlotte hadn't forced businesses to throw open their doors
to both genders, regardless of the liabilities or the company's beliefs. In
Charlotte for someone who did not accept gender identity as the new
requirement in identifying if you're a boy or girl the fine could have
been $500 and/or a 30-day jail sentence. The passing of H.B. 2
overturned Charlotte's mandate. This week in federal court, Judge
Reed O'Connor denied the Obama administration's request to limit the
hold on the Department of Education's order to let students of both
sexes use any locker room, shower, or restroom they want. At the end
of the summer, the President's policy was put on hold by the
courts. The administration's attorneys asked the court to lift the ban on
implementing the policy in every state except 13 who are suing the
government over it. Judge O'Connor refused, stating: "It is clear from
Supreme Court and Fifth Circuit precedent that this Court has the
power to issue a nationwide injunction where appropriate. Both Title IX
and Title VII rely on the consistent, uniform application of national
standards in education and workplace policy. A nationwide injunction is
necessary because the alleged violation extends nationwide. Should
the Court only limit the injunction to the plaintiff states who are a party
to this cause of action, the Court risks a 'substantial likelihood that a
geographically-limited injunction would be ineffective."
