Secret Church

 

Secret Church is an intensive, live-streamed Bible study focused on a deep-dive in the Word and inspired by "secret churches," or underground house churches located in places where Christianity is persecuted.

This year, Secret Church is back with a dramatic, immersive look at the life of Elijah, the prophet who stood before kings, called down fire from heaven, wrestled with despair, and was carried away in chariots of flame. Through four cinematic chapters, we’ll walk through the highs and lows of Elijah’s story and be challenged toward courageous, resilient faith. As always, Secret Church is about more than studying Scripture. It’s also about equipping the global church to live boldly for Christ. This year, the story of Elijah will be woven together with real stories of gospel advance in Nepal, bringing ancient Scripture and modern mission into powerful alignment.

Join us April 17 from 6:00 PM-Midnight in the Flipside Auditorium. Registration is just $5 and includes a workbook and snacks. Use the button below to register today!

Builders for Christ

This summer, Builders For Christ (BFC) is partnering with Ebenezer Baptist Church (EBC) in Logan, Ohio, providing volunteers to help build a new 13,000 square foot addition at EBC. The original building was previously built in 2008 by BFC volunteers. The new expansion will provide room for:

• A multi-purpose Family Life Center

• Restrooms and showers

• An expanded kitchen area

• Four large classrooms

• A significant expansion to their already crowded children’s ministry wing

 

Ebenezer leads the way in community outreach. Their reputation is strong—not because of a name or a building, but because of faithful people serving, loving, and sharing Christ.

 

Volunteers from New Covenant Community Church will travel to Logan, Ohio and work with volunteers from other churches from Monday, June 29, thru Friday, July 3.  No special skills are needed. Whether you're handy with tools or prefer to help with tasks like preparing meals, sewing projects, cleaning, or child care/education there's a place for you. All you need is a heart for Jesus and a willingness to serve.

 

For more info contact Craig “Zach” Zachariasen.
