THE
SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS -
Its time again for our annual Spirit of Christmas
service here at Marcus Pointe. This is the
biggest outreach of the year featuring an incredible
service, amazing children's program and FREE roast
beef dinner. This year's special guest will be
visionary conservative leader, J.C. Watts.
From
football hero to his remarkable eight years as one
of the most recognizable members of Congress, J.C.
Watts is an embodiment of the American dream.
You will not
want to miss his stirring testimony , the incredible
music, or any other part of this amazing event.
A
GIFT FOR JESUS -
This Christmas, many of us will spend money on our
husbands, children, wives and even our great-aunt
Matilda...but how much will we give to Jesus? On
December 20th our church will take part in a Gift
For Jesus and we are asking our church members to
give to God and the church the same amount they are
spending on others in 2009. These gifts will
then be used to continue the ministry of Christ here
at Marcus Pointe.
THANKSGIVING SERVICE -
November 24th at 6:45pm
- This year, we have more than ever to be thankful
for. Please join us on Tuesday, November 24th
for a brief time of praise and thanks to our God and
King for all of his blessings. The service
will start at 6:45pm in the Main Auditorium.
