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.

believe, check out our website at www.estillnaz.org.

MICAH 6:8 MINISTRY from Sandy Schefcik

Did You Know that the Hyde Amendment celebrated its 40th
birthday, September 30, 2016? Forty years ago, Congressman Henry
Hyde lead the effort to ban taxpayer funding of abortion. For the first
time in the history of the Democratic party, the DNC actually included a
call to repeal the Hyde Amendment in its 2016 platform. As part of the
House of Representative's hearings, The Born Alive Infants Protection
Act, would give babies who have lived through an abortion procedure
the chance at life that they deserve. The President has promised
to veto the Born Alive legislation because the bill would have a 'chilling'
effect on "the provision of abortion services". Contact your Member of
Congress and voice your support for the millions of children who have
no voice.
