Welcome and thank you for joining us today! “This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.” – Psalm 118:24 NKJV 

Today’s special VBS Sabbath is a journey with Joseph from prison to palace, where we experience the heartbreaking trials, joyous victories, and tear-filled celebrations of this unique Bible hero. We are very thankful for the time, energy, and heart the leaders and staff have poured into this year’s VBS program and for their dedication to our kids. All have been truly blessed! 

Door-to-Door Evangelism: Our literature distribution walks GP neighborhoods every Sabbath afternoon. Meet here at the church at 2 p.m. All are welcome! 

VBS Clean-Up: The adventure is over, and the desert sand must be swept! Your help will be appreciated as we take down Egypt and clean up the “throne room” tomorrow, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. If we “borrowed” items from you, please come by the church and pick them up during this time.
