Welcome
April 23, 2017 Worship Service: 10:00 a.m. Pastor: Don Piper "What Follows Easter?"
Today Nursery: The Nursery is available downstairs for children (newborn–age 3) during the morning service. Children’s Church (ages 4-8) meets today. Teachers and helpers will be in the lobby area to meet you. Sunday School classes will meet after the morning service today and will dismiss by noon. All children from K-Grade 12 are invited! Two Offerings: We will collect two offerings this morning. The first one will be directed toward our Local Operating Budget (LOB), and the second will go to Ministry Shares. Thank you for being a prayerful and generous church body!
Next Week Sunday's Message: The message next week will be delivered through a Choir Cantata by Joseph and Pamela Martin, entitled "A Time for Alleluia." With moving narration and media, our choir will guide us through the seasons of Christ's life and ministry. Using Ecclesiastes as the biblical basis for the narration, this work will take us on a journey of faith that will impact the hearts of all who hear it.

Shoreline Christian Reformed Church is a gospel and grace-centered community learning how to follow Jesus. We belong to a broader community called The Christian Reformed Church. What does this mean? We call ourselves… Christian… Because we belong to Jesus Christ and want to be his followers. Reformed… Because we’re part of the historic branch of the Christian church that follows the teachings of the leaders of the Protestant Reformation, who struggled to return Christianity to its biblical roots. Church… Because God has called us to be a fellowship of his people in the world.
