Today is Senior Sunday. We are so proud of our five seniors, Gisela, Haley, Hayleigh, Stevie, and Roshad! We pray for their success in their future endeavors but more importantly we pray that they will continue to grow in their faith. As we all enter different chapters in our lives, we have choices to make. Everyday we must make choices. We choose what we will eat for breakfast, what we will wear, or what we will do that day. Joshua, in Joshua 24 offers a challenge to the Isr

This morning, we continued our series “Young People of Faith” by looking at Jeremiah and how at first, he questioned God when he was called because of his youth but God told him exactly what Paul was teaching Timothy. Jeremiah went on

Last Sunday morning, in our Teen class, we started a series called “Young People of Faith”. This morning, we talked about Joseph and how through his faith he endured many hardships throughout his life. Whether it was living with his brothers who hated him for his wild dreams, being thrown into a pit and later sold into slavery or sent to prison on a false accusation, Joseph never strayed from God and trusted Him to take care of him. Joseph always stayed true to God and even w

Good morning Church family! Let me start off by saying how blessed and humbled Andrea and I are that you have chosen us to serve this congregation as your Youth and Family Minister. We are truly honored and can not wait to get started. We have prayed for this and know that God is going to do great things here at Summerdale. I wanted to just take a moment to introduce myself and tell you a little more about me. I grew up in Mobile, Al and have been a member of the Lord’s churc
