FAITH TO SLAY GIANTS
“I Am The Vine; You Are The Branches. Whoever Abides In Me & I In Him, He It Is That Bears Much Fruit, For Apart From Me You Can Do Nothing.” John 15:5, ESV
SERMON PREVIEW
A Short Message To Get You Excited For Sunday’s Worship Service.
“FAITH TO SLAY GIANTS”
When dealing with big moral issues that plague society, and sometimes our lives, we can think of them as giants that must be slain. This upcoming Sunday (6/1/25), we’re going to look at seven lessons in slaying giants from 1 Samuel 17, the account of David and Goliath. We hope to see you there at 10 AM for Bible class, and 11 AM for worship.

LIMITED-TIME OPPORTUNITIES:
Avenues For Women Baby Bottle Collection
It's that time of year again! We are starting our Baby Bottle Collection for Frankfort's Avenues for Women. Be sure to take home a baby bottle and fill it with spare change, folded money, or checks. We will be collecting bottles until Father's Day, Sunday, June 15th. Even though in KY abortions are largely illegal, the Avenues Clinic provides pregnancy services such as pregnancy tests and ultrasounds, post abortion support, parenting classes, and programs for men. This is a wonderful opportunity to really make an impact so let's fill as many bottles as possible!
