Bible reading is an indispensable part of our relationship with God.  Our church journeys together throughout the year as we read selected passages of Scripture each day.
These readings will often coincide with what we’re studying in worship and/or Connection Groups. We encourage you to join us as we seek to know God and live according to His Word.

NATIONS

The majority of Northern African and Middle Eastern peoples are Muslim and will be observing their fasting month of Ramadan, roughly February 28 - March 29 this year.
