SPECIAL EVENT - APRIL 30

Next Wednesday, April 30th, we're going to meet at Almaden Lake Park (click for map) at 6:30pm to play bocce!

Bocce is a fun game for everyone - and super easy to learn.

We'll hang out and play bocce, then all go out to eat dinner somewhere. (bring some moolah for dinner)

These fellowship nights are a great opportunity to bring friends! Let's invite our friends and pray that they will experience God as they connect with our community.

No Group This Week!

Hello friends,

We won't be meeting this week. My childhood best friend will be in San Jose on Wednesday speaking at VCHS chapel. Then a bunch of my friends from elementary school will be hanging out in the evening. It will be the first time we've all been together in about 15 years!

Jared was my best friend all growing up. He moved to Kansas right before Jr. High. He got married a few years ago, and 6 months later his wife died in a huge car accident. Jared got burned over most of his body. It's a crazy story!

Discipline 1: Meditation

Last week, I introduced our new series based on the book called, The Celebration of Discipline (see post below).

This week, we'll be discussing the first discipline: meditation.

We will look at passages of scripture in the Bible that encourage/describe meditation. We'll discuss what meditation is and what it isn't. We'll talk about how, when, and where to do it.

Then I'll challenge all of us to block out some time during the day to escape the NOISE and busyness of life and spend time meditating on God and on His word.

I'm looking forward to seeing you all!
