Ephesians 5:18
Be Filled With the Spirit
Pastor Pete will continue his series
of messages from the book of
Ephesians. The Holy Spirit's role
in our life helps us live
appropriately in relationship to
each other. This morning, we will
focus on what it means to be
empowered and controlled by the
Holy Spirit.
Join us outside at 9:15 for TQB (The
Quarter Before) and enjoy coffee,
frapuccinos, music and friends.
This week:
Money, money, money! It’s on all
our minds. It can be a cause of great
stress and burden or freedom and
joy. Sunday, we are going to look at
some of the testimonies of what God
is doing through the Good $ense
ministry as well as look into God's
Word to see His heart on how to
navigate some of the questions of
finances in these tough times.
Prioritize your financial goals
!
Develop a personalized
spending plan
!
Identify action steps to reduce
your expenses
!
Pay down your debt and much
more!

NEW
ATE!!!
Saturday, May 2, 2009
9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.
In the upper parking lot of CLCC
Thanks to a new law in the state of California, those unwanted, old and bulky electronic
items that are illegal to throw away or that you normally have to pay to give to the dump,
can now be recycled for free with the church receiving a small amount for each piece
recycled. This also helps reduce toxic waste that harms the environment. That is a win
for everybody!
What you can bring:
Men’s
Bible Study
Men, come and join us on
Wednesday mornings for Bible
Study on the book of Jeremiah. We
meet at 7:00 a.m. in Room D140
for our study. After our study, we
enjoy breakfast in the gym. A $2
donation is requested for
breakfast. We would love to give
you breakfast on your first day
without charge.
Televisions
Computer Monitors
Computers and parts
Computer keyboards
Printers and copiers
Computer accessories
Fax machines
VCR’s
Typewriters
Walkmans
Digital Cameras
Cell Phones
Free pickup!! If you have an item that you can't physically get to the church on your own,
call the church office by Wednesday, April 29, in order to arrange a FREE pickup!
We are also looking for some VOLUNTEERS who care about the earth
and connecting with our community to be available to help people
unload their recyclables from their cars into the correct bins. Workers
are needed from 9:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. Call the church office (244-1877)
to volunteer.
Proceeds are to help Student Ministries launch an after-school program.

Call Pastor Kasey
for more information.
Pastor Pete:
Easter services brought 1,374 worshippers. Pray that many will return and
make Sunday worship a priority in their lives.
In the next couple of weeks, our study in the Book of Ephesians will have us
look at what God's Word has to say about marriage and family. Pray that these
messages will be impactful and beneficial as these are relationships that
Satan desires to destroy.
Pastor Kasey:
Pray that the Good $ense seminar would be a transforming experience for
everyone involved.
Pray that many in the Threshold service (as the message is about this topic)
would feel God inviting and challenging them to grow into more of the
freedom and joy He wants for them with their money and finances.
Pray that many more couples would sign up for the Mastering the Mysteries
of Love seminar in order to invest in their relationship.
Pastor Ron:
Please pray for wisdom in preparing the series, Questions Jesus Is Asking, in
Mainstream Sunday School.
Pray for wisdom in caring for each of our missionaries.
Pastor Jay:
Pray that we can continue to make this a place where students want to come
through some changes in the Youth Room.
Pray for a new student leadership group I am working on starting.
Pray for more Adult Leaders to join us in discipling students as they continue
to grow in their relationships with God.
Pastor Bryan:
Pray that God will continue to work in the lives of those who attended Easter
services. Pray that many lives will experience Hope Restored.
