WELCOME

We are so glad you have joined us today! Our desire is that God
would bless and direct this time together. Worship is an
interactive, participatory experience and our prayer is that the
service today would strengthen and encourage you on your
spiritual journey. Whether you are new to faith, just coming back
to church, or a long-time follower of Jesus, we hope you find your
time with us engaging and meaningful.

WH AT TO EXPECT TOD AY
Worship: a time to connect with God through song and prayer.
Feel free to stand and sing with us as we praise God through
singing by following the on-screen lyrics. A typical service lasts
about 65 minutes.
Offering: We give tithes and offerings as a part of worship in
obedience, celebration, and thanksgiving to the Lord. Its also just
our way of saying, We love our church and we want to support
it! If you are a guest, you are not expected or obligated to give.
Children: We have a fully-staffed Nursery for ages three and
below. Kids ages 4-12 will be dismissed during the service to the
childrens chapel to be taught by Pastor Linda and her staff.
Message: The teaching time seeks to communicate biblical truth
in compelling, relevant ways. All of our messages are available
as podcast on our website www.estillnaz.org or through iTunes.
Response: When God is speaking, we take time to respond.
Most of the time this is after the message, but at other times it
may be in the middle of the service. An invitation is never needed
if you want to pray at the altar.
Communion: We take time monthly to celebrate Communion
and welcome all followers of Jesus Christ to participate in this act
of worship and remembrance regardless of membership or
denomination.

MICAH 6:8 MINISTRY from Sandy Schefcik

Did You Know... that FEMA (Federal Emergency Management
Agency) regulations will go into effect next March and state governors
have a choice to comply with the regulations or lose millions of dollars
in FEMA relief planning? Under the new regulations, only states that
tackle the effects of "changing environmental or climate conditions" in
their long-term "hazard-mitigation plans" will qualify for funding.
Specifically, governors must "identify tools and approaches that enable
decision-making to reduce risks and increase resilience from a changing
climate." FEMA's plan comes on the heels of a report from key
environmental experts, who agreed last year that the White House's
National Climate Assessment is a "masterpiece of marketing" that
crumbles like a "house of cards" under the weight of real-world
evidence. In an open letter, experts criticized the government's "climate
models" for dramatically failing basic verification tests. The
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change admitted that the world's
temperatures haven't risen in 17 years.
