ONGOING EVENTS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Friends on a Journey
We are a group that meets during the Sunday School hour. Everyone is welcome to join us. We all learn together
and invite new people along the way. We strive to evangelize. It is our goal to bring new folks to Cooper.
We meet, eat breakfast and talk and pray.
We understand that we don't have all the answers and we don't try to fix anyone or offer unsolicited advice.
We do feel that we know who does have all the answers and we happily introduce our best friend to anyone interested.
We pray for each other and for the people who aren't here that we hope to meet on our journey each week.
We are flawed humans seeking guidance daily from our best friend Jesus.
Some of us have gladly received the blessing of salvation and hope to help others find this beautiful gift as well.
Breakfast and Bible Study are at 10:00 a.m..
For more information feel free to contact me at 314-7629 or sandeecrabtree@aol.com
