Christian Church

Howard Reiter gave the Communion Meditation at Sunday’s service on legal vs. right, referencing Acts 5:17-29. We must obey God rather than any human authority, because sometimes what is legal, isn’t right in God’s eyes. Chase Riebel discussed “Cost of Being a Disciple” and where we put our hope. He referenced many Bible verses about how we should always put our hope in Jesus and the truth of God’s word. Congratulations to Chase Riebel on being elected in the new full-time pastor.

Cowboy Church

Sunday service at High Point Cowboy Church was opened with welcome and announcements by Leo Ramsey and praise music led by Cindy Beckmon.

Pastor Jon Petty spoke about Pentecost Sunday referring to Scripture in Acts 1 and 2, which records the beginning of the church and when Holy Spirit came “in” believers, rather than “on” believers, empowering us to tell the world about Jesus.

UMC

Scripture presented at Sunday’s service was Psalm 104: 24-34, Acts 2: 1-21, Romans 8: 22-27and John 15: 26-27. Pastor Dorothy Welch’s sermon topic was “How Exciting, How Remarkable, How Miraculous…”
