"Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God"
Ephesians 5:1-2 ESV

Hey Church!
Hope and pray that you're having a great week so far! We are so very thankful for what the Lord is doing in and through Creation Church.
Here are some of the highlights of what's going on this week:

So incase you didn't hear... we're tackling a lot of projects this September. We're shifting our normal church services @ 9 & 10:30AM to the Fellowship Hall as well as our nursey & Creation Kids. Some of these items have been needs of our church for a long time and now due to your faithful giving we're able to address several items at once.

We want your feedback on how everything is going and also importantly on potentially adding another service to accommodate our continued growth.

Please take a minute and let us know your thoughts

We'll be shifting Creation Kids a bit as we go through this transition time, so lets preface this as a work in progress! We would love your grace during this time and value your feedback.

Nursery: Will be open & staffed in the room above the fellowship hall.

Creation Kids: These groups will be moving down the hall into the older portion of the building which was once the conference room. Check In will be in the classroom at the top of the stairs and the checkout process will remain the same!

Youth Group: Same as we've operated in the past. Kids will sit in church during the music/worship time, then dismissed to their room in the Fellowship Hall basement.

This month at Bloom, we will begin our Women of the Bible series with a deep dive into the life of Eve. Together, we will read and discuss the Scriptures, looking at identity, temptation, shame, and the grace of a God who still comes looking for His daughters. Eve’s story reminds us that our identity begins with God’s design, not our failures.

Bring your Bible and a pen as we study, reflect, and discuss what Eve’s story can teach us today.

Thursday, September 17 @ 9-11 AM
Come as you are and grow with us in faith - because Motherhood was never meant to be done alone.
