Friend Request

Social networking has taken over American culture. To better illustrate that, over 500,000,000 active people are on facebook, that is 1 out of every 13 human beings on earth! 48% of 18 to 34 year olds check facebook right when they wake up. 57% of people talk more online than they do in real life. In any 20 minute span on facebook, 1,972,000 friend requests are accepted.

After studying the life of Christ in our teaching series, the "Final Answer" it is clear that Christ commands, not only obedience, but a relationship with Him.  He offers us the ultimate "Friend Request"  For the month of July encounter will be studying the idea of Salvation, and what it means to accept that friend request from Christ.

Encounter will only meet twice (July 6th, and July 27th) on Wednesday nights in July. VBS and Toronto 2011 will be taking our attention in the middle weeks of July.  Encounter groups will still be meeting at its regular time on Sunday mornings on the weeks that we will be absent for the corresponding Wednesday.  Make sure you are present for the Wednesdays that we meet, you won't want to miss it!

This is a perfect series to bring your friends who are curious about Christianity. Don't miss the chance to bring back someone who attended our cookout!
